BELARE Expedition Leader Alain Hubert gives a speech to the entire team on New Year's Eve 2020-21.

The BELARE team helps themselves to the main dish of New Year's Eve dinner, which consisted of roast duck, seasoned potatoes and fruit salad with berries.

Until the new heated garage becomes operational, mechanics do maintenance on the Prinoth tractors outside when the weather is nice.

Our mechanic, Yann, performs general maintenance on ski-doos and other machines in a container, which has temporarily been converted into a workshop.

The IPF BELARE team installs the heavy mechanism for the rolling door at the entrance to the new, heated garage at PEA.

Tom installs all the doors and prepares the workshop for maximum efficiency.

In bad weather conditions, snow can infiltrate the station, even through the tiniest gap. In order to avoid this, the team made adjustments on the main door of the garage, making it possible to use even during snow storms.

The IPF BELARE team installs a wooden frame in the station's new annexes to support a sliding door that will insulate the heated garage from the freezing temperatures outside.

Sometimes small adjustments make a big difference when weather conditions deteriorate. Thanks to these precise adjustments, the garage door can now be used, even in poor weather conditions.
