Trip Leaders: Erling, Lluisa, JF
Description: This is the trip for you who has never used fjellski before, or has only limited experience, and wants to become comfortable enough using fjellski to join a trip in the future. We’ll use the weekend to learn basic techniques that are necessary to traverse mountainous terrain on fjellski. We will practise skiing uphill, downhill, and on the flats. We will be driving cars to Hamlagrĝ on Staurday and ski to DNT Vending from there. We will practice walking with backpacks on the way there. On Sunday we’ll play around and ski down again to the cars. It is going to be slightly more challenging than “Intro Fellski one” with Andrew, so if you joined the first you will still enjoy this one.
Food: We’ll make dinner together at the cabin on Saturday evening. We can discuss this at the trip meeting and then I’ll take responsibility for bringing the ingredients. You’ll need to bring your own breakfast, lunch, and snacks for Saturday and Sunday.
Transport: Saturday 11th February: Cars from Bergen to Hamlagrĝ. One of the tripleader has one car, but we recommend that you use “getaround” or another app where you can rent private cars.
