Excellent weather and snow on Litletinden

Litletinden. Wonderful weather, a fantastic day skiing. 

We skied up through the woods. Above the snow line we did one hot lap to warm up. 

We followed the ascent route veering to the right over a ridge and then along a steep skin track through some interesting terrain with great views down to the fjord and back to Narvik.

We got to the saddle with Sovende Dronning (The Sleeping Queen) looming above, a spectacular location with views to the Frostizen massif and back to Narvik and surrounding mountains.

The entry to the descent route down the Vale looked sketchy and was in the shade so we skied below our ascent route in great snow.

Coming back through the trees got read interesting towards the end. A cracking day out.

Offpiste ski instruction on Narvikfjellet with Alison and Andy

Two days off-piste ski instruction on Narvikfjellet with Alison Thacker and Andy Nelson. 

Some great tips for handling varied snow conditions. Icy runs on the first morning. 

There were some nice off-piste turns to be had up high. Poor visibility on the first day, good visibility on the second one.

Great skiing on Narvikfjellet after welcome snow overnight


First ski day of my 2025 trip to Norway. Great skiing on Narvikfjellet after welcome snow overnight and rain yesterday. 

I buddied up with Wayne from Canada for superb off piste runs above the top of the Fjellheisstasjonen Narvik gondola. Deep soft snow and wonderful views down to Narvik and across to surrounding mountains.
