Snow conditions in Norway ?

Hi,
any idea how much snow is left in Jotunheimen,
Hurrungane or in the Romsdal region ?
Best Regards, Peter

See Turtagro Webcam. Friend of ours climbed Galdhöppigen some weeks ago and there was a lot of snow.

Thanks Chris.

Danke Chris. Schaut ähnlich berauschend wie 2005 um dieselbe Zeit aus.
Beim Galdhöppigen war das zwar ok (ist 'eh ein Schneehatscher) aber am
Storen waren wir abgeblitzt.
Grüße, Peter

Bin auch mal gespannt. Auf den Storen zu kommen wäre schon schön. Wir haben im Moment Norweger zu Besuch. Werde mal fragen, wie die die Lage einschätzen.

You will need an iceaxe for almost all summits in western Jotunheimen this season. Crampons might also be needed.


Thanks Eric. Axes and crampons packed, anyhow.
Added the long gaitors as well ;-)
