Honningsvåg Airport, Valan, is one of the most northernmost airports in the world. Sitting at the very tippy-top of Norway, it resembles a frozen wasteland for much of the year. Doubly so on the very last day before the winter solstice. Which makes flying into it a surreal, otherworldly experience.
When you try to land your Snow Speeder at the Ice Base on Hoth, this is exactly what it looks like.
