Temperature variations for the week.

Good morning.

Now at 6am it is -8 and slightly cloudy. They say it's going to stay like this for a few days.

But within the last three days we've had temps from -22 to +3. So I would rather wait and see, the sun is quite high at the moment, and there is going to be a beautiful sunrise at around 7am.
So I believe there are more variations than the meteorologists really say.

Today, we arrange a tour towards Måsåplassen. Should be possibility to see some reindeer. There was a huge herd close to Muen crossing the road on Friday, and staying in Gråhøgda area on Saturday.
Have a great day out.

Monday 8.3

Good morning.

Yesterday we ended up with a maximum of +1, and had a thin layer of clouds so being outside was perfect. This is the time for getting the base tan for the summer.

Today we have the same predictions, with temps going up to zero.
Now it is -3 and a calm breeze. All tracks, except Kyrkjegardsfjell were cut yesterday.

We have 5 persons signed up for Skisafari activities this week and today they head for Dynjefjell.

Sunday

Good morning.

Today it's warmer and we start the day with -4C. That means a layer of blue.
A fresh thin layer of snow came last night so it's a tiny mm on the top of the hard packed snow that are in the tracks.

Quite cloudy today, but always good to be outside.

Few pictures from this week

Some of the interesting sites this week, windblown snow surface, hiding mountains and cloudy patterns.

Cold morning and sunny weekend

Good morning.

Here we start the day with -18, but after the sun has been up for a while it will be temperatures around -10.

Clear sky and sun rise at 0704 makes the day perfect.

All major trail routes were cut yesterday, so it is just to get out there and have fun on some blue/green wax.

Windy Thursday

Good morning! It has been windy for about 20 hours now and still continues building extra features on and off piste. 7 AM: -10 Celsius, moderate breeze from N, partly cloudy.
Great day to look at our sheltered trails.

Sunny Wednesday

Good morning! Clear sky at 7AM, -11 Celsius, gentle breeze from NW, maximum visibility. Wind has started chewing the trails and adding some extra bumps, but hopefully we are all skillful enough to complete some of these mogul runs.

Svabudalen-reindeer-tour

What a day! After spending a solid 7-8 hours out on the hills and valleys of Ringebufjellet we are back and enjoying memories of our nice tour. On the way to the starting point we had some jawdropping moments when we just drove past hundreds of reindeer. I think we could have agreed on finishing our day there, but we didn't. We did our usual 22-25km mixed on and off piste tour in Svabudalen, which was amazing, lots of sun, falls, some wind and great views. We must have travelled over thousands of reindeer tracks and "samples", no wonder we had no problems with the grip :)
Enjoy some of our pictures we took.

Windy night and morning

7AM: -10 Celsius, gentle breeze from N-NW, partly cloudy and windy. Expecting similar conditions for the next few days, maybe with less wind.
