Lofoten Adventures - Fishy Tales part 3 - Stornappstind West face

With the forecast looking better for the next few days, but snow stability still questionable we headed way out West for our 5th day in Lofoten to Stornappstind:



A steady skin from Nappskaret took us up to the West face, where numerous kick turns and then a bit of bootpacking up the ridge took us onto the gentler summit slopes:







Incredible views from on top:



The snow wasn't bad either! Mike in action here:

The main pitch of the West face gave a fantastic leg-burning descent - one shot, top to bottom, in fantastic powder!:













The guys seemed reasonably happy with the descent...:
