 Poster: A snowHead
|
Usually, given we’ve been back on our 7th annual pilgrimage to the Mecca of skiing for a few days now, I would’ve posted something. However, there are two reasons for this: (1) I’ve got a new camera and that requires additional faff and (2) I’ve been editing this...

'By 'eck that's gorgeous'!
On a more serious note - would you be willing to send me a copy in a file format suitable for printing to A6 canvas?
I would love to have that picture on the wall of any room in my house.

Thanks all. It was pretty special and last night kicked off even more. Best I’ve seen it up here. I’m sure a rather giddy @horizon will appear at some point with some more...
Anyhow, we’ve been doing some skiing, too. @offpisteskiing has once again been doing a superb job of finding the goods. I’ll try to get a couple of shots up before breakfast...watch this space

Yesterday we headed north east for what turned into a fairly large day. Here’s @horizon skiing a tidy west facing pitch with 5 ins of fresh to soften things up a little.

Wouldn’t want to steal your thunder!
I’ll aim to add some of the touring / skiing pics tonight.

@mmcla, the weather’s too good for that. Some of the chaps did half a day a couple of years ago when the rain came. Unstad is a fair hike from here, too.

Apologies for the lack of updates; conditions have been fantastic all week with blue skies and no wind so that means long days. Add to that camera faff and 3 nights of aurora action and there’s a bit of catching up to do! Here are some tasters from Monday night. Truly extraordinary and by far the finest display I’ve seen...

We’ve even managed to get some skiing in. Today’s objective: the line runs from the leftmost peak and for the sake of argument, we’ll name it Unicorn Shoulder X...

Reasonably steep and firm snow on the way up with a few ‘consequences’ either side in the event of tripping over a sea eagle meant breaking out the mountain jewellery

Looks proper average, especially those Northern Lights shots which summed up the dullness as they reflected off the water
