| The Mighty Stetind! | 
On July 7th the Sun came out with full force in Northern Norway and  I guided 6 clients up the world class Alpine Ridge Climb: South East  Ridge of Stetind (Norwegian 4+, US 5.7).  Johanna  StÃ¥lnacke worked with me to lead a strong group of 6 from Trondheim up  this iconic peak.  Conditions were perfect and we all enjoyed the trip  to the fullest.  I have climbed Stetind once before by the more  challenging South Pillar Route (Norwegian 6, US IV 5.10) and jumped at the  chance to get back on this amazing peak.  Thanks to everyone  who climbed Stetind with Northern Alpine Guides!  Enjoy the Pictures:

| "Au Cheval" climbing right from the start. Classic and Exposed. Fun. |
