Celebrating the Easter holidays with a happy bunch from Holland and this was the second year they came for a visit. Skiing for six days together starting out in a blizzard but the weather changed and we had good conditions in general through the whole week. Kavringtinden, Taffeltinden, Russelvfjellet and more peaks got visited and the hot sauna was waiting with a smile… So did the arctic sea for the swimmers:)

Skiing the direct line to the sea from the top of Storgalten, fantastic run with fantastic people!

Our third day of great weather and skiing in Lyngen. Here Jessica from Sweden, cruising from the summit.

On our way to Stetinden for a great ski, topped with an extra run from Rundfjellet.

After a classic drive from Chamonix it’s great to be back in the Lyngen alps and Tromsö. Starting directly with a long weekend of skiing together with four Swedish skiers and a Swiss aspirant guide (Andrew Lanham) who joined me for the ride up here. We skied from the summits of Storgalten, Goalsevarri, Stetinden and Rundfjellet in three great days.

Also staying out here in Nordlenangen for the coming weeks together with my family. Having groups coming and going during the spring for good skitouring, fresh seafood, newly built sauna and more…
