The first day with somewhat decent weather in over a week :) Quite a long drive from town, around 1 hour, and we took a right turn off the main road in Mjelde and parked at the mechanics there. We could see the summit from the car and decided to take the left ridge up. After we walked in a bit we thought it would be more time efficient to take the steeper ridge on the right. After we came closer we realised there was a lot of steep hangs, and traversed back to the left and followed that ridge up. We thought that powder season was over for this year with last weeks mild weather but the conditions were great. After some discussion about the snow we decided it was stable enough to ski down the steeper hangs on the right. Great skiing all the way down to the car. Once we got back we discovered the >>>

Hemmeligskogen

A girls trip after work to Hemmeligskogen i Ramsfjord. We started walking around 6pm and with almost a full moon we didn't need our headlights until we got ready for the trip down. The terrain was very varied with steeper hangs and quite a lot of old tree stumps. The trail was well trodden and my skins were sliding so I ended up walking my own path. Lots of kick turns on the way up. No wind at all when we came to Storkollen, with a great view over Ramsfjorden towards Durmålstinden and the mountains beside it. A fun trip down in great, soft snow. Some sections with really steep hangs and some tight forrest. We chose to stay more to the right of the main path walking up on the way down. Forgot to stop my watch before we got back to Tromsø :D Takk for turen Eva, Pauke og Kari!

Tomasjordtinden

Distance:
8.8km

Yr bommet helt i dag! Sun and no wind had been on the forecast for a whole week so the plan was Ullstinden and sikkelig påskestemning. Tromsø was covered in low clouds when we woke up and after checking the cloud cover/wind speeds on Windy we realised we would have to head inland and decided on Tomasjordtinden. We parked on the edge of a driveway and followed the old ski tracks that led up to the right of a big white house. Some tight trees that thankfully didn’t persist for too long and soon we were over the tree line. We were walking in the shadow side the whole way up so it was a lot colder than expected. The terrain changed to big slopes covered in really nice, fluffy powder so we were getting excited for the trip down. After a small hot chocolate break we headed right along the ridge >>>

The weather was shifting a lot, and in the space of driving to Kattfjord it had been snow and sunshine twice. It was snowing heavily when we parked next to Kattfjordskole but decided to give the trip a try anyway. We followed a small path to the right side of a house which met the lysløype after a few minutes. We followed the lysløype up and gained elevation quite slowly. We came off lysløype and started breaking trail at tverrelva. There was lots of powder so me and … took turns breaking trail. Once we came over the tree line and started heading for the summit the weather turned for the worse and we got stuck in a complete white out. Paal was already ahead of us but we decided not to go any further as his tracks were already covered. We got changed and waited for him to come down. Really >>>

Puddertur til Hatten

En kort tur før jobb i deilige ny puddersnø som kom til Tromsø på mandag. Jeg synes dette er den perfekt topp for å komme seg ut om man har litt dårlig tid og det er kjempeartig nedkjøring med store kul-formasjoner.

Blåtinden

Date:
10.03.2019

A beautiful day in Tromsø so we decided to head up Blåtinden. The years first trip with sikkelig påskestemning. We parked by the side of the small bridge and walked along the road before taking the trail up to the left of the green house, keeping on the right hand side of the river. We dug in the snow for a stability test while we had our first kvikklunsj and it looked nice and stable. Kjempefin nedkjøring and Eva took a nice line in the steep side of the bowl on the way down. Ended up skiing too far down to the left and had to walk about 1km back to the car on the right.

Brosmetinden

En nydelig dag i Tromsø, men etter noen hektiske uker på jobb jeg skjønt når jeg sto opp at Jeg hadde ikke klart en lang tur i dag. Da blir det Brosmetinden så at uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund) kunne få utvikle seg med å stikke opp Sørtinden som ligger rett til høyre. Ganske isete i dag så heldigvis er turen ganske slak. Ypperlig utsikt fra toppen!!
