Description of the trip: Skårasalen is a really lovely skitour where you have great views of spiny ridges and the beautiful Hjørundfjorden. It is not exposed or technically difficult, but there are some steeper parts where avalanche danger is present. It is possible to chose an alternative descent to Skår, but then you need to book a boat to come pick you up by the fjord, which is an extra cost not included in the guide price. All photos above are from my own skitours About the guide: I love skitouring in the beautiful mountains of Sunnmøre, and I wish to share my passion for these mountains with you. I know many of the most popular mountains, but also a few lesser crowded gems. Skitouring in the Sunnmøre Alps can sometimes be very complex due to weather, steepness and avalanche danger. It is important to know that during certain conditions the skitour might not be possible to do. Normally when I go skiing I choose my mountain based on the local weather and conditions of the snowpack and not the particular summit. So therefore, booking a certain summit long in advance leaves no guarantee we can do the ascent on the actual day of the skitour. If I think the skitour in question is not a safe choice at the time, I will suggest a replacement if possible. Skitouring with me is also not a race to reach the top, we take our time and will enjoy the ascent as much as the descent. Examining the snowpack on the ascent is also a must on the skitours where avalanche danger could be present. If I deem the conditions too unsafe, I will turn around. Safety comes first. If possible I will try to find a safer option nearby. When booking I would like to know your skill level and experience up front to ensure the skitour in question is right for you. Looking forward to showing you the magic of the Sunnmøre Alps Training: NF Grunnkurs skred (basic avalanche course) NF Videregåendekurs skred (advanced avalanche course) NF Grunnkurs bre (basic course glacier) NF Videregåendekurs bre (advanced course glacier)
