Finally, the snow came to Gurskøya and there was just enough of it to allow for skiing on Laupsnipa - my favorite winter activity. Today, I was so fortunate to share this experience with Anne and Karma.
The best day in - oh so long!

The weather has been terribly bad this autumn and November and beginning of December was a "disaster". Even I - got fed up with daily rain and hail showers. But today, we got a break and could enjoy a mountain trip without snow goggles and face protection...
To Laupsnipa!

This type of snow is a big problem for Karma, but the trip wasn't long enough to give us real problems. The suit gives a lot of protection against the snow, but we seriously need to figure out the sock problem...

The pictures say more than anything I can write on this page, so I'll just let them speak for themselves. Unfortunately, it seems that this snow is not going to last...
