Here´s a late update from our adventure in Anderöja!
Andörja is a grope of islands located in the northern part of Norway between Narvik and Tromsö. The area is famous for its summer sea fishing but fairly unexplored to freesking until a few years ago. Andörja is an Island full of peaks and 10 of them is over 1000meters straight down in the Norwegian fjords.
Our contacts in Norway pulled their strings in the county of Ibaestad and Troms to get a landing permission on the island of Andörja. Early February we got the permission to land at almost all peaks on the island from middle of March until May. So now started planning the trip!
It snowed a lot in March and April but the weather never cleared up.. A bit frustrating for all of us in the crew, all of us wanted to get up there bad! Then we saw a weather window in end of April and got up there. I hooked up with Nicke Jacobsson from Winter Project, Olof Larsson and FRWT winner Janette Hargin and took a flight to Narvik/Harstad. From there we moved on whit speedboat to the village of Engenes on Andörja . Engenes is a fishing village with all its 50 residents.
First day the weather looked pretty good so we decided to go up in high altitude whit the heli and check out the snow. A few days earlier we got reports of fresh snow up there but the night we arrived the temperature rose and as we made it up we discovered that the pow just gone wet!
We decided to stay a few days as we saw the wind was changing and a new storm was coming in. A few days became a week and the storm was still hanging over us with a lot of wind, fog and rain. After 9 days of waiting we saw the mountains in the evening for the first time in a week, and decided to call in the heli.
5am next day the Heli landed outside our cabin and the weather was perfect! I stood on top of my first line 6am and looked out of a scenery worth waiting for!
See the result of the trip in the upcoming Winter project movie that’s realized for free on Internet this autumn!
