PROJECT OSLO: A taste of city life

After getting a taste for the city life last weekend, we couldn´t resist exploring more of what Oslo has to offer.

I made a few calls last week, and found out Lars-Georg had also been scouting out other falls within the city centre. We went down to a forgotten part of the city, at the back of several old factory buildings, where the river is completely hidden.

Urban Kayaking Oslo



Well what can I say! I was stuck in the city this weekend painting my girlfriends bathroom. Needless to say I got the itch to do something while the paint dried! Luckily Tor-Håkon Inderberg in now in Oslo, and easily persuadable. 

We jumped in the van and headed to Akerselve which runs right through the centre of Oslo, and as far as we know, hasn´t been paddled! 

Between some messy rapids we found this sweet drop in the old industrial area which is now the new Oslo school of art, about 5 minutes from Oslo centre!

Lyngen



We just got back from 10 days ski touring in the far North of Norway. We lucked out with perfect snow conditions, and fantastic weather on the pretty unpredictable west coast! We were also treated to a great show of Northern lights in the evenings.

We received a full range of next years ´lofoten´range from Norrøna to get some shots. It´s amazing how much you can fit inside a one piece ski suit!





Climbing Kavringtinden





Storgalten




A Norwegian beach holiday! Snow right down to seas level. We used a small fishing boat to cross the fjord and access the mountains.





Climbing in the hot -10 sun, with a clear view down over 1000m to the fjord.







The long walk to into the mountains.





Perfect powder !




Hillevi show´s us what it means to be a Norwegian who CAN`T ski!





Colin and Ra cruise down through the powder into the sunset.






The view out of the kitchen window. The skies came to life at night.
