Pinga in Fall colours

When the fall arrives the ban on unleashed dogs disappears and Pinga thrives.

Litj Klotinden

Today I hiked to the summit of "Litj Klotinden". The official name of the mountain is Jennskardtinden (654 m.asl.). The view from the top is super!

Dronningruta

Dronningruta (The Queen's Route) is a hike made famous by Queen Sonja of Norway. Most of the route is along mountain ridges with views to the ocean both east and west. If you have a few hours to spare and some extra energy - this hike is worth every calory.

I had great company by my uncles Bjørn and Einar.

Hiking in Vesterålen

Did a very nice hike together with my fabulous Grandma Hilda and Aunt Astri. In the background is the spiky peak of Klotinden.

Gisløya in Øksnes

Hiked through Grunnfjorden Nature Reserve and reached the sailing light at Gisløya. This is another pearl of Vesterålen. After a short wait the sun came down below the clouds on the horizon and gave me a magnificently lit landscape.

Chinstrap Penguins at Baily Head, Antarctica

This picture is taken very early in the morning. I was guiding a group of hikers across from Baily Head, Deception Island, Antarctica to Whalers Bay. This is a fantastic hike that takes you through one of the largest chinstrap penguin colonies in the Antarctic Peninsula.

Spitsbergen in October

The tourist season is over in Spitsbergen and the community of Longyearbyen has geared down. The day is getting about 15 minutes shorter in each end, every day and the light is fantastic. At night you can get lucky and have clear skies with aurora borealis like we did on our hike to a cabin outside town...

Hiking on a beach near Tromsø

I spent the first of May hiking along a beach for four hours. The weather was variable and the sky was changing all the time. This season is great for big backcountry skiing trips followed by some layed-back life on the beach, a bonfire and good food.
