Winter 1 - Norway




I've been rather slow updating but a quick report of my trip to Lyngen in Northern Norway for ski touring from a boat in March. A group of six of us stayed on a comfortable boat, the Goxsheim

which we joined in Tromsø. Our weather was mixed but the plus side was that we had lots of great powder. The views of the surrounding mountains were impressive and it makes me want to return and ski some of the bigger peaks. Because of the poor visibility and avalanche risk we stayed on the lower mountains, reaching about 1000m. The highest in the area is just over 1800m. My photos are as usual on Fotki

but here are a few to whet your appetite.
