base jumping anyone? looking down 1400 meters to the campground from the top of Stetind!

on 'Bare Blobaer' ('only blueberries, a Norwegian expression for something easy), old school 5.8, Djupfjord, Lofoten Norway...

Lofoten Islands, Norway

summit of Stetind, 1400 meters above the ocean in the background... think I can safely say this is the most spectacular view I've ever seen... :)

crux on Stetind's 'Sydpillaren', a beautiful 5.10 layback corner

looking up at the South Pillar on Stetind (left ridgeline), 600 meters, 5.10, and one of the nicest routes I've ever climbed! :)

Stetind, Norway's National Mountain, from the water's edge.. summit is 1400 meters. not a bad looking hill eh?

Stora Sjofallet National Park, Sweden, close to where I've been living/working....

rapping down from Pianokrakken above Djupfjord in the background, Lofoten... yes, the water is actually that color! :)

'Vestpillaren', Presten, Lofoten Islands, Norway June 2012

about half way up 'Vestpillaren', 450 meters, 5.10+, and one of the best climbs I've ever done! Presten, Lofoten Islands, Norway

Lofoten Islands, Norway from Henningsvaer... not a bad view eh?

Lofoten Islands, Norway... go there if you've never heard of it, some of the most beautiful climbing on earth!!

some scenery near where I've been working the past 4 months in Northern Sweden; Reindeer for scale :)

my office! Gallivare, Sweden, May 2012

leading very nice route, 'Gamla Rev', Norwegian grade 6 (5.10) at Gandalf, Lofoten Islands, Norway

gearing up to start climbing Sydpillaren on Stetind, just broke through the clouds!

Lofoten Islands, Norway

gearing up to start climbing Stetind... big face behind me only has a few route on it and potential for many more... and the neighboring fjord has unclimbed walls to nearly 1000 meters. go get it!! :)

perhaps my favorite Lofoten photo on my favorite Lofoten route, 'Vestpillaren', 14 pitches of beautiful granite by the ocean!

starting to feel the exposure a bit on Stetind!

'Vestpillaren', Presten, Lofoten Islands

approach to Pillaren Peak in Djupfjord, Lofoten.. June but definitely still hat weather, around a crisp 12-13 C that day (hey, we are above the Arctic Circle after all...)

coming down the 'normal route' from Stetind (1400 meters) after climbing 'Sydpillaren' (left skyline) to the top! Northern Norway
