Rjukan - Norway

Feb '09

I just thought I would let you know abit about our recent trip to Rjukan in Norway!

Not wanting to repeat the info in Phil's fantastic report from last winter I am going to keep this one short but sweet!

Here goes!

A1, M11, Stanstead, Torp, Hertz, white roads, -18.5C, beautiful cabin, loads of snow, chapatis and whisky, Lower Gorge,
Krokan, My first Ice lead, skidded pants, Lower Gorge again, rest day but not for Phil and Pete, Ozzimosis, Upper Gorge,
Krokan, more whisky, drum and base, Torp, Stanstead, M11, A1

I said it would be brief!

A big thanks to the gang, from left; me, Peter, Phil and Roger.

Looking forward to next year!

Cheers,

Simon W.
