Pillaren (Point 713)

I’m not very good at bringing my camera it seems like here in Lofoten, but the other day I went out on a long cruise climb with my American friend Seth hobby.  We set out to climb Celebrian (6-) on Pillaren in Djupfjord and had a really nice day in good company and stellar weather.

Pictures from the south face descent!

When we got up on the summit of Denali before i skied the south face, we met a few friendly boys there. One of them was Luc Mehl, who stood there with a big camera on a tripod. Check out his blog to see two of the shoots he took!

Back in the magic Islands of Lofoten

After Denali I have taken a bit of a vacation from the blog. I have spent time in the north of Sweden with family and friends, been to Stockholm for a wedding and got back to the normal training routines.  I have also had plenty of work on the computer and been starting to plan the next mountain adventure for the autumn.
After two weeks back home I packed the car and drove up to Lofoten in the north of Norway where I’m planning to stay for a month or two; climbing for myself, training, hanging out, guiding and instructing climbing.

I haven’t even brought my camera on the last week’s adventures, but I’m going to get better. J

Updates from Denali will also come eventually, but right now I’m living in a tent and out on the mountain everyday, so the computer time is very limited.

Check out the companies I’m working for:

Northern Alpine Guides – www.alpineguides.no – If you are looking for a guide for skiing or climbing in Lofoten, northern Norway or around the world.


Nord Norsk Klatreskole – www.nordnorskklatreskole.no – if you are looking for a real climbing course in one of the best climbing spots in Europe.
