Have loved ski jumping for years, always enjoy watching it.
Was in Oslo a few years ago and had a go on the zipline they have set up in summer on the Holmenkollen hill. Fantastic to get a feel of flying down the hill.....and great views over Oslo fjord as well ...perfect.

More updates and stats on ReykjavΓ­k's unwinter: last snow day was Dec 16. Zero snow in Jan, and last time that happened was in 1940.

Attached photo from mountain pass toward Þingvellirvatn; snow doesn't even cover full topography. Ski places closed nearby.

View of two black-painted wooden houses with white windows and doors. Between them is a red-roofed, white-painted church. There is blowing snow on the ground and sunshine on the left hand house. Blue sky with some lower grey clouds.

Took so many pictures of this view - the sun even came out briefly during that blizzardy trip.

Amazing how many of the wealthy right wing seem to be misogynistic and/or have a predilection for children. A pattern is emerging.

One of the world's most majestic granite spires, Mount Cerro Torre in Patagonia, Argentina, is clothed in intense alpen glow, its reflection broken by thin ice which formed during the cold, windless night.
