Ever since reading about how beers cost $12 each and speeding fines run well over $600, I decided that I had no desire to ever climb in Norway–especially as most of the climbing seemed to be moderate. But I’m starting to rethink my position after seeing images and video of this amazing granite anomaly in Flatanger. Steep, long, featured. It looks incredible. This video isn’t the best, but it gives you an idea for what the climbing might be like. What a treasure.
