June 2008: After a "lost" year in 2007 when being ill and forced to a gull surgery, I have slowly tried to get back into shape. My main goal for 2008 is a trip to the Alps in the middle of August. To test myself I made a one day speed ascent of Bierdnacokka in Norway. Check out some photos from "Bierdna" @ the beta pages of my upcoming Alps 2008 pages or follow this direct link.
