Owen and Inga - Tour de Norway!

Mo i Rana


One of the pictures above is of Owen in the cave Sætergrotta dressed in my dads cave suit from the seventies, the other is of a laban (a jelly man), now, guess which is which! :)

What the ...??? It's cheese in the cave!!!
I don't think I ever really appriciated how beutifull it is in Mo i Rana when I lived with my parets. This is on the top of the mountain Tortenviktind. It is an hour drive from home, and has a view to the fiords, mountanis, islands and to the glacier that is as beutifull as can be. And in addition to this it was completly awsome untoched powder snow for telemark and ski mountaineering!




Teaching Owen downhill skiing in Hemavan (just over the border to sweden). He is actually really good! As his personal ski instructur I take the honor :) After his weeks in Norway Owen have learned down hill and cross country (back country and racing) skiing, and tried telemark. He seriously impressed me! Next time he'll be up for skating cross country skiing and snowboarding!

Tromsø


The view from the cabin Nonsbu. To get to this trip we just took the city bus! In that way Tromsø is an amazing city, even though it is the largest city in Northern Norway (with 62 000 inhabitants :) it have some really cool mountains and wilderness just in its backyard!


Me and Anne Katrine discussing the map.

Sunset over Tromsø. The city is there, you just don't see it :)
