Ski mountaineering guide to 50 summits in one of the best ski touring regions in Norway, Romsdal on Norway's western coast. Some of the routes are popular classics, while others are less well known. Some are accessible, others remote. Some steep, others gentle. The book gives detailed route descriptions of ascents and descents in several areas. It includes aerial photo diagrams (but surprisingly no overview map).
You never ski the same mountain twice. Conditions change with weather and season; fresh snow can be a blessing, but it can also spell avalanche danger. When the sun is shining in spring, some slopes should be avoided while others are ripe for the picking. This book recommends where to ski and, just as important, when to do so.
The author, Halvor Hagen has lived in Isfjorden for over 20 years and is a keen skier and rock climber, a certified Nortind mountain guide, he has been working in the Romsdalen area for the past fifteen years.
