Ready to rumble!  Finse train station, webcam on the left edge  Finse from a little further  The way ahead  We're following marked trails today.  Along an old bit of Bergensbanen rails  A patchwork of snow ahead!  Still smiling  These can become quite artsy  Rivers to cross - off with the boots  You can see the "summer bridge" to the left.  Only in summer!  Only in .. wait - what?!  There is only one obvious choice.  Spectacular views ...  ...  Up through more snow  One third of the way?  <3 slate  Water under the snow  Beautiful and blue  It's a glacier  And a relet  ...  Resting in the (wind) shade  Flowers are found even here  A path of golden coins  What you don't want to see on ice you have to cross  They have a weird sense of humour  Not a manmade marker  Lunch break!
