Mountain Tops

At least once a day we should find ourselves on a mountain top, watching the sunset and loving life.

It had been a beautiful and busy day out here, but we aimed for another late start and found the summit of this Kvaløya classic more or less deserted at 10pm. We then bathed in the visual splendour for a bit before carving our tracks in the soft powder now tinted pink, on our way back down to the ocean. Thank you Mama Nature.

We started our little sea to summit mission at 8pm that day - It doesn’t get dark in the northernmost corner of the European continent in May so why not? Encountered a storm but kept on climbing and arrived at the summit when the sun found a crack on the horizon and set fire to the sky. It was close to midnight and we spent a good moment wondering if it was for real, before riding back down to our cabin to have dinner at 1.30am. #mittnordnorge

I have no reason to share this photo other than to get an excuse to say trees are awesome 🌿 Planet Earth in its wildest form is a piece of art. Agree on that and act like we mean it, shall we? 🧡

Although spring, it was windy and cold and we were out chasing the light on the glaciers of the Mont Blanc massif. What followed after the setting of the sun was a long, dark and muddy ski/walk/crawl out, until we eventually stumbled over the doorstep of Moö’s for some late night dinner. Tired and thirsty I didn’t even bother taking my harness off, just jugged 5(?) litres of water and cried a tear of happiness once our food was finally served. My favourite kind of Saturday night.

Pre-dinner reflections at 3,400m. Life is as beautiful or terrible as you make it.

Midweek adventures involving whiskey and stars and a rustic ski-accessed mountain hut hidden away in a sea of alpine radness in the Mont Blanc massif... the one who ever complains about Chamonix night life is a fool.

Earth hour is every hour of every day.

The queen of the Dolomites lurking in the clouds as the storm ceased and allowed the sun to briefly illuminate the snow sprinkled rock before calling it a day.
