On March 24 at the Severny Gorod company office in Norilsk Artemy Lebedev had a meeting with local residents and the traditional sale of expedition equipment. Canned meat, alcohol, a gas stove, a down jumpsuit and many other things found their new owners.

Previously, light cars and trucks have never reached Norilsk from the north.
