Thanks Slowhatch! I think that's their main lodge, the dog sleds look slightly north of the Ice Hotel, here:

this is not a MAPS observation, but since I did not see nay better place to put it, I am putting it here:
June 1, the day That AR17 was in Sweden, would have been a midnight sun period for Narvik and for the border at Riksgransen. It was less than 3 weeks from the summer solstice, longest day of the year and those locations are well above the Arctic Circle.

Its above the Arctic circle, so on June 1 they have 24 hours of daylight.
Home to Börje Salming - best Swedish hockey player ever!
3 flights from ARN to Kiruna on June 1:
NAS 3761 dep 10:25 arr 11:55
SK 1042 dep 11:07 arr 12:31
SK 1044 dep 13:25 arr 14:40
I don't have the actual arrival time for NAS 3761 - but it is interesting to note that it changed departure gates in ARN which could account for the teams running around the airport.
