Cold Trail Tour Leg 1

Leg 1 — ENTC → ENEV Tromsø, Norway → Harstad/Narvik, Norway

An opening reconnaissance leg tracking the convoy’s last confirmed movement through northern Norway’s frozen coastal highways.

The Last Sighting

The convoy was first reported near Tromsø shortly after midnight.

A fuel station attendant described three dark military-style vehicles moving south through heavy snow with headlights partially blacked out. They paid in cash. Spoke little. Refueled quickly.

Then vanished back into the storm.

By dawn, the regional security command realized what had disappeared from the research depot farther north: a classified prototype guidance core removed during a coordinated insider breach.

Nobody officially confirmed its capabilities.

But every intelligence agency involved in the pursuit wanted it recovered before it crossed another border.

Your aircraft departed Tromsø beneath a gray Arctic sky where sunlight barely touched the horizon. Fjords stretched black beneath drifting snow while frozen roads wound between steep mountain walls below.

The first search sectors focused on Narvik’s highway corridors and abandoned military roads used during World War II when the region became strategically critical during the Battle of Narvik in 1940.

History lingered heavily in these mountains.

Convoys had vanished here before.
