Årstiden tro inneholder denne utgaven en stor NA-del. Olle Alm har sendt rapport fra årets Abisko-ekspedisjon og som vanlig har han hørt mange godbiter. Legg merke til at også Bjarne i Berlevåg har notert flere perler i loggen. I sørlige Norge har ikke forholdene vært like gode som lenger nord, men det er godt håp om at julemåneden kan bringe fine forhold over hele landet.
