SPITSBERGEN SUMMER 2008: The Adventdalenriver from glacier to Fjord expedition has been very successful. A short story with some pictures can be seen if you click on the expedition logo: Advent River from Glacier to Fjord.(see above)
In August I managed to do two week trips on Spitsbergen:
The first trip was a walking trip from the Nordenskiold Glacier to Tempelfjorden. On the last day on this trip I did a long day (and night) trip around and over the mountains in the Templetmountain area.
Click on the Templet Mountain picture (see above) for an exiting story with pictures.
The second trip was a ski-tour in Oscar 2 land. From 200m. above sea level I did use my ski's. This was probable the last ski-tour for the ski-season 2008 or the first ski-tour for the ski-season 2009.
Click on Ski-Tour Oscar 2 Land (see above) for some special pictures.
LOFOTEN SUMMER 2008: During the last weeks of August I made a 14 days sea-kayak and walking (scrambling) trip on the Lofoten islands in Northern Norway.
I was very lucky to see a beautiful sunset when I was camping on a high mountaintop at Reinefjorden.
I managed to paddle around the southern part of the Lofoten Islands. For sure this is the place to test the stability of your sea-kayak and the stability of yourself.
A daily report with may amazing pictures can be seen if you click on the Lofoten pictures. (see above)
