Topptur for beginners II – Day trip on Saturday 09th of February
Difficulty: 2 out of 4
Tour leaders: Timo Käfer, Søren Bering
Description:
You don’t always have to go far!
On this one-day trip we will experience some of the good randonee / topptur
possibilities we have close to Bergen.
This trip is a bit more advanced than what we did on the introduction
weekend but still well within the comfort zone of a first time on randonee
and a good opportunity to get familiar with the essentials of backcountry
skiing. We will most likely have some stops for avalanche assessment and
rescue training.
We don’t expect you to be an expert in handling the deep snow, however you
need to be in decent shape, and it shouldn’t be your first time wearing
skis.
Obs: we start early on Saturday.
