"More amenable" is a relative term.

We are talking about a site in the sub-arctic (Lat 68°N) at 1000m elevation on an inaccessible mountainside, and buried by impact in the snow pack.

Could be August before the snow melts enough to be handled with man/helo-portable equipment. Current Tromsų weather forecast indicates they are expecting rain and clouds most of this week, which may mean the mountain site is "socked in" and not accessible even to helos.
