Thanks a lot for providing help with Frida's question. That really looks a hard route to ski. I have not heard about it before, but I must say I immediately got interested in it. It is very cold up there in winters, so you really must take the weather issues into account. Frida, was this helpful? Are you planning to ski that route? Hi Jouni and thanks for stopping by!

That really looks a hard route to ski. I have not heard about it before, but I must say I immediately got interested in it. It is very cold up there in winters, so you really must take the weather issues into account.

Frida, was this helpful? Are you planning to ski that route?

A good friend of mine did a 2-month millennium trip with his friend (not in March :). You can find his report from their homepage - unfortunately in Finnish, but it contains the route and pictures! http://koti.kainuu.com/joula/pp/pp.htm PS. Take into account that the guys did not see the sun much as it does not rise at all for a couple of months in there! Hi Frida, cheers Marko!

I was born in Lapland and cross country skiing was my first contact to skiing. Anyhow, I do not ski so much cross country nowadays. Mainly alpine. Unfortunately I do not know anyone who has done that. Which direction you mean? West-East or South-North? Oh yes, I love it.
