Warm night - great snow shoe tour to Myafallet

7AM: +3.8 Celsius, moderate breeze from W, clear sky , great visibility. It has been a sudden warmth in our weather - effecting mainly the mountains and higher regions. Hopefully it will stay only for a short time and we could get back into our real winter.
Trails are holding, although there is a lot of melting - so we are on klister condition.

Evening update: we had a great snowshoe tour to Myafallet, amazingly there were still cold and full winter conditions in the canyon.

Tuesday - mild weather

5AM: -0.7Celsius, fresh breeze from W-NW, good visibility and we had about 3cm fresh snow in last 24hoirs. It's been pretty windy last night, so probably all trails need maintenance.

Monday - new snow

Good morning at 6AM: -8.6 Celsius, light air from E, overcast, light snowfall and about 2-3cm of fresh snow in last 12hours.

Sunday

Good morning at 7AM: -15 Celsius, light air from N-NW, great visibility. Most of the trails including Svartfjell have been prepared in the last days.

Saturday - Northern lights

Good morning! 7AM: -19.4 Celsius, light breeze from N, clear sky, great visibility. Another Northern Light night with even more stunning show.

Friday - Boxing Day

7AM: -11 Celsius, light breeze from W-NW, great visibility, few clouds around. We had a Northern Light show again last night.

Merry Christmas!

6AM: -21.3 Celsius, light breeze from N, clear sky, great visibility. Beautiful Northern Light views last night on the horizon, not so strong, but visible. It seems to be a cold morning and ahead of another great day. Trails prepared: most of the southern trails, Veslefjellet, Indre Uksan (not Kvandalen). Trimloype has been driven by only skidoo, still waiting for some snow to come and cover up more. We had some lovely tours in last days and even visited the frozen Myafallet.

Christmas days

Good morning! 7AM: -13 Celsius, clear sky, gentle breeze from W-NW, great visibility. We wish you all Merry Chrismas - enjoy these beautiful days!

Veslefjell tour

Tuesday

What an amazing day , started out with fog and turned out to be a gorgeous sunny day with some windy moments.

New snow

Good morning. 8AM: -11.4 Celsius, light air from E-NE, local fog and about 7-8 cm of fresh snow overnight. Great start!

First guiding day

We just had a wonderful day skiing  on and off piste around the central parts of Venabygdsfjellet, amazing light conditions and views. We could see the weather coming in. Right now it is already snowing!

December is here with the beautiful colours!

More snow

More snow the last few days. Beautiful at the moment with snow on the trees. I went skiing for the first time on Saturday. Great!!!

View from Gålå towards the highest peaks of Rondane. Fog down in the valley.

Winter is slowly on it's way...

Like the rest of the year, it's quite mild, but it seem like winter is slowly on its way. They forecast som more snow in a few days. We are going to try skiing in the area closer to Muen, which is a little bit higher up, this weekend.

 

 

 

The perfect automn week

I have to show you all some photos from the perfect autumn week! Almost like summer. Still warm days, still quit long days, and a small, very nice group, with two ladies that some of you might recognize from winter season... We all enjoyed it! -And they got a very different impression of the area, with no snow.
