I thought some of you would like to see different kinds of terrain in Norway. December and January are very dark and cold here with short days, so in March we are really eager to get out in the snow and sun!

This is my last day on skis last year, 16. of May, rather long movie with a campfire and a long walk (with skins) from 200m to 1816m before we ski down:

What we thought would be the last day of skiing, earlier in May, a rather gray sky, but happy skiers anyway:

Åre (just across the border to Sweden) with kids, five fathers and 11 kids from four years and up:

And finally, my "Lunchbreak Mountain", some slide shows from our "city mountain", 10 minutes by car from the office, this is from March last year but the conditions are similar now:

You can go skiing in tramway-like tracks,
, in a queue


or go a few meters from the (machined) tracks completely alone,


Very Happy


Errrr, almost forgot, here is my friend Pål's (Paul/Pablo) movie clips from our trip to Alagna, Italy in January. Six old men on skis..

For my .02, here's a link to a photogallery from a trip up Store Vengetind on 30. April a year ago and a double-header on Kjøvskartind and Kirketaket the next day.

All in the Romsdalen area, also known for a lot of BASE jumping/wingsuit action.

Yup, that's us. Molly (now seven years older than on the Trollheimen trip you found) and I were just on Finnan in Romsdalsalpene last Friday, 5. June (my birthday!):

And we also found some powder on Dronningkrona in early May:

And my friend Christophe and I spent a week in Romsdalalpene and the Eikesdalen area in mid-May (Klauva, Skjervan, Skjøvdøla, Skjorta, Nordviksula):

These Facebook galleries are supposed to be open so hopefully you can get to them. Later I may put together a spring skiing slide show on mac.com. It's been a good season for me, 13 tops I think, 7 of them new. I'm wondering if I should do one more before I hang 'em up for the summer....
