Lyngen Descents Episode 1(Norwegian Coastline)

by Bjarne Salén

The Lyngen Alps is a jagged mountain range located on a half island on the northern Norwegian coastline. It’s a magic place for ski touring in the early spring when the days are long and the snow conditions normally are good.

Skiers Andreas Fransson and Morgan Salén together with filmmaker Bjarne Salén explored the Lyngen Mountains during three weeks in April 2012.

During this time they made six first descents and skied some of the best snow they had ever found in Scandinavia – This is episode one out of three.
