Day 11 - 15: Powder and great views

Day 11: Narvik

Not much to say, just a late evening tour after planning the next days in Narvik. Waiting for snow up in Riksgränsen. At least we met a nice guy on the parking lot and that turned out to be a great contact three days later.

Clouds rolling in

Day 12: Riksgränsen

No visibility. Great snow. That´s it I guess. Oh no, wait: Great fun to sleep in the car when it´s fucking cold. Not!




Day 13: Urdalen

Same procedure this day. Great snow, cold sleep in the car. Haha but worth it! After the skiing we drove to Narvik, rented a cabin and went out partying. Damn it was funny, but you´ll have to ask us in person for the details!

Day 14: Narvikfjellet

Boy did we wake up with a bad hangover. We managed to check out at three in the afternoon though and somehow got our shit together and turned up at Narvikfjellet at 4.30 pm. We had planned to skin up a little from the top of the ski area for a good run but visibility was not good. Luckily we met Torje there, the guy we had met on the parking lot some days ago, who showed us around. Big thank you as it was definitely the best run of the trip! After that we enjoyed yet another great sunset at the fjords.

This is the original photo, no photoshop or whatever. Not kidding!


Day 15: Ruvssotcohkka

Well, you can´t always have sunshine. Another proof of the quick weather changes here. While it looked good for a tour in the morning it wasn´t even worth taking a photo anymore three hours later on top of the mountain. And yet another big thank you goes out to Torje who gave us a great deal at a hotel in Narvik where we are currently staying.

Checking the weather in the morning

At least the drive back to Narvik was fun

Who´s more creepy?
Now let´s see what the next days will bring. At least a big breakfast tomorrow morning!
