If I had 10kr for every time i started a rapport with 'Yr had forecast sun'...The plan was originally Skittentind but contrary to the sun yr had promised, there was a lot of cloud cover and we decided on Steinskarstinden instead.

Everything was looking really tracked out so we were pretty sure the trip down wouldn't be the best. The elevation gain was gradual and accompanied by hearing about Hannah's most recent himalayas expedition.

Up we go

Vindstille :)

A surprisingly short trip and we reached the top just as I started thinking about my first kvikklunsj for the day :) Lovely views over Kvaløya, and with not a breath of wind it was stunning to see the ocean as flat as a pancake.

Got a few nice turns towards the top but it quickly turned into survival skiing over the bumpy old tracks. Was even lucky enough to get some tips on my skiing from Tromsø's best ski instructor ;) Tusen takk for en meget hyggelig tur hmsv1 (Hannah Vickers), håper det er vel ikke den siste! :)
