This is approximately how Burj Dubai, at 810 meters (or 2700 feet when
finished), would look, if it were placed directly beneath the scree of
Troll Wall, with it's monsterous vertical cliffs of 1785 meters (5950
feet), where about 1100 meters (3600 feet) are vertical, with 50 meters
overhang. BASE jumbers who jump off the top (it has been illegal since 1986),
falls for about 20 seconds or more, before they open their parashute.
This is Europes tallest vertical cliff, and one of the tallest
worldwide. I know of only one cliff in North America and one in Pakistan
(Great Trango Tower's east face) who are higher than the Troll Wall. But
they are located far away from the population in remote places. The
Troll Wall can be admired from the main road, passing by, only 3 km from
the foot of the scree. You can even go by train (Rauma-banen) from
Aandalsnes to Dombaas, and it passes by this huge cliff every day.

My carkeys ;-)

Eyes glowing by the camera light of my phone. Wow! Captured and released out the window. It was lucky :-)

Storheia in the front and Trollheimen mountain range in the distance, with peaks up to 1800 meters (6000 feet)

Early evening, at 7:45 pm. The Trondheims fjord is seen, more than 500 meters (1800 feet) below.

At the summit of Gråkallen, a well known mountain beside Trondheim. Some 550 meters abowe the town.

The picture speaks for it self

But it's not ustally like this in summer :-)

This little hare looks a little lonely :-)

Theese made the road slippery and we had to drive real slow to prevent sliding outside the road.

Temperature dropped with 10 degrees Celsius within minutes.

Heavy showers in the distance.

Thunder and heavy showers over Gudbrandsdalen.

No signs of it now, but in may 1893 a huge disaster filled this valley with quick (blue liquified) clay after a landslide of 55 million cubik meters of this clay. Some 123 people perished in the valley. This is still the largest in modern time here

Theese two small fellows have been jumping around our cabin for a few days. Here they have taken refuge under the cabin. They often come out after sunset.
