We did the trip in May 2018, and had beautiful weather the whole trip. Not a drop of rain.

Also, your photos are great and Norway looks as beautiful in the snow as in the sunshine. Next time you sail and leave Floro for open waters, checkout ASKROVA ISLAND and THE HAMMERSETH FARM. THAT IS WHERE MY FAMILY BEGAN MANY, MANY YEARS AGO.

Hi Pete, so interesting you say that! I actually had written snowmobile first but then corrected it to snowscooter, as that’s the term the logistics guys used 🙂

I see you write “snow scooter”, as I do after many years in Norway. I think it’s a good description of the vehicle in English, but whenever I have checked on the net I usually hit snowmobile or even skidoo – both of which feel wrong to me (the former feels bigger, the latter is simply not true any more!) But in these days of electric scooters, perhaps snow scooter is wrong too. Tricky.
