The expedition is having the last physical tests in Department of Biology and Physical Activity, University of Jyväskylä. While driving to Jyväskylä the expedition had a visit in a cold room of the Hospital of Finnish Rheumatism Foundation where the temperature can be decreased as low as -110°C (-166°F). In a cold room the last tests were made to see how the electronics and the O-ring of the stoves can handle the cold temperature. It was warming to see that Marmot Down Clothes were actually hot to wear in such cold conditions.
