Just back from several weeks in Norway/Sweden/Finland in the wilderness cabins I ran into about a dozen other skiers (mostly had cabins to ourselves), all locals except for a retired British alpine guide. Every single person had skis with scales. For longer tours in arctic weather waxing is a pain in the ass, uncomfortable, and perhaps dangerous.
