The only problem is Sweden has had a mild winter so far and there is very little ice and snow on the forestry tracks north of Karlstad in central Sweden where the event starts and finishes.

Snow Removal Salt: Some substances produced to melt ice and snow have low to moderate toxicity, depending on the ingredients and amount ingested.
When snow or ice melts on a roof over a heated or partially heated attic space, the melting water may refreeze over an unheated areas such as a roof overhang.

Ice and snow extends and retreats, glaciers flow and carve U-shaped valleys in softer rocks, deposit moraines and change the shape of the land.
The ice inherits many of the characteristics of the snow, and throughout the accumulated thickness of the glacier the characteristics of the ice can be used to reconstruct surface conditions at the time of formation of the ice.
Snow may be piled against these cliffs by drifting and thus accumulate in sufficient depth to form ice and glaciers.

Though they are a great help under normal winter driving conditions, snow tires do not give better traction on ice.
Snow affords decent traction to snow-tire equipped vehicles, but ice is risky.
Water, snow, ice, gravel, or other material on the roadway reduce traction.

There is also great cross country skiing and snow shoeing; and the ice rink at Long Barn is open for skating.
