Country-wide 4
Arctic archipelago under Norwegian sovereignty - counts as Norway in country streaks
Plates generally black w/ yellow text
Mainland Norway uses white plates - black/yellow in an Arctic setting → Svalbard.
Norway: Black/yellow → Svalbard; white → mainland Norway.
Barren, treeless mountains; vegetation = only moss & grasses; sky often overcast, gloomy coverage
Iceland is the lookalike - Svalbard is even more barren, with zero trees and Arctic light.
Iceland: Zero vegetation at all + Arctic light → Svalbard; moss/grass patches + volcanic features (geothermal lakes) → Iceland.
Russian sometimes on signs (Soviet-era mining settlements)
City 3
Longyearbyen: largest settlement, many boxy minimalistic buildings
Pyramiden: feels abandoned - Soviet-style multi-storey blocks, no human activity, pyramidal mountains in the distance
Barentsburg: most desolate of the three towns; multi-coloured apartment blocks near the hilltop; even gloomier coverage
Specific spots 2
Road spotlights: SE of Longyearbyen = treeless mountains both sides + lakes to the mountains (small black mirror sometimes left); south of the airport = trekker holding a red car on a winding road (or the distinct NE mountain line)
Boat coverage:
