Majestic Stetind by espenhaagensen Add me http://ift.tt/1fqSViy



The national mountain of Norway. Towering some 1392m above Tysfjord. This really is pretty much as good as it gets when it comes to mountains, a kind of mini Ama Dablam. In 1937 Peter Wessel Zappfe wrote about this mountain: ”Da revnet skyene, og endnu engang staar han for os, titanen, lynomfunklet, vassdrivende, skinnende som smergelpusset jern. Den raper av torden omkring han, men det rager han ikke, ingenting rager ham, der han troner i olympisk likegyldighet over livets svedende geschæft – en ambolt hvorpaa gudene kan hamre.”
