Interesting Ski (related) Films..

Post by littlevikingca » Sun Jan 07, 2018 9:08 pm

This may be something posted before but, if not, here are a couple of films that this audience might enjoy. Straight from the land of the Telemark:

(or search "Cold Tracks / Kalde spor (1962)" )

full of fjell skiing (but not a telemark turn to be seen) -explains the need for metal edges on nordic skis ;)

and:

(or search "Nine Lives / Ni liv (1957)" )

Jans Baalsrud's epic escape across Norway in the Second World War -right through the town my grandmother had left 25 years before..
