The magical combination of sea, snow and steep mountain sides now attracts lots of enthusiasts for guided "Sail & Ski" trips but this arctic ski experience is just as available for the individual ski adventurer.
The book gives detailed descriptions of ascents and descents, for the beginner as well as for the expert. All the trips include aerial photos with routes indicated. Each chapter ends with an overview map (1:250 000) as well as individual maps for the summits (1:50 000). The book also includes a huge number of pictures. There is a chapter on avalanche safety as well as a chapter on ski history.
