The deserted mining town of Pyramiden on Svalbard is almost empty. To keep it Russian there has to be people living there so, there are 5, I think and they are the guides. If it was empty then it would revert to being Norwegian.

      Thanks for your kind words. It was a long day on a boat to get there but it was well worth it. The Russians are opening a hotel on the site . But when I have no idea.
