Flying into Tromsø but based at a place a couple of hours away on the Lyngen peninsula, right?Quote:

Again I’m no expert - but I recall reading/hearing somewhere that the ski and snow quality for April in Norway is primarily dictated by the storms of March.
That is you shouldn’t get worried if January and February are looking thin. Just be patient and trust Ullr.
Has anyone sampled the berries there? Quite tasty with pankokker
A buddy is in Tromso right now, reports tough conditions. Apparently a ton of snow fell in January, but warm weather since has fused it into a bulletproof slab (good for avy I suppose). Forecast is for steady snow for all week though, maybe it will improve.
Yikes. Steady snow on bulletproof.
Opensnow showing a warm-ish 20 inches falling over the next 10 days for Tromso. Maybe the new snow will bond a bit.
Same friend reported 10" new overnight two nights ago and substantially better skiing!
Agreed, hope it bonds well.
Fingers crossed for you. Although if it isn't good my fomo from not joining will be substantially lower.
I've got one spot left on a April 14-21, 2025 Lyngen Ski and Sail trip. I'd rather not have it go empty. If you're thinking of a trip like this feel free to make an offer. If you're a freelance photographer/journalist I'd consider a trade. Food, guiding, sailing and board included.
Level 4 avy conditions today. From the report:
“The last five days have seen heavy snow showers and strong winds, mainly from the west and northwest, in the region. As a result, there are many snowdrifts in many places. Flakes have also formed in some places in the forest and tree line. Locally, up to 50-60 cm of fresh snow has fallen in the last five days. The lower part of the snow cover consists mainly of refrozen meltwater after several severe mild weather events in February.
Between the snowdrifts and old mild weather crust, there are small edge grain crystals in places. A few danger signs have been observed in connection with this layer, but not very clear, and few in recent days.
On Sunday, several large and medium-sized avalanches were observed on the Tromsø mainland, in the west of the region.
A lot of avalanche activity has been automatically registered both in Holmbuktura, Pollfjellet and Lavangsdalen throughout the weekend and Monday morning.
On Saturday morning, shooting cracks were observed in the ASKO forest south of Tromsdalstinden.
On Sunday morning, a rumble in the snow cover is observed in several places in the region.”

I guess the snow has arrived bigtime.</p>
We’ve skied hard the last two days with a great weather window. Good weather maybe coming to an end on Wednesday but supposed to be decent tomorrow morning. We’ve found good snow and good terrain both days. Randomly ran into Cody, Nicolai and Bjarne at a trailhead yesterday.
I saw he was over there via his IG. Today he posted some helmet cam footage, looks like that same weather window you describe. Looks killer overall!
