| A brief route
description of the normal route: Start from Djupen in Lakselvdalen and
walk
approx. 3 km into
Ellendalen. Continue into the nameless valley between the South Face of
Ellendalstinden
and the North face of
Guhkesgáisi
(Langdalstindene).
Keep to the East of Point 1018 and continue up easy slopes to the col
between Ellendalstinden and
Imagáisi.
From the col follow the East ridge on moderately steep
snow up to the foresummit. The last 175 m along the East ridge to the
main
summit is very exposed and will require a rope, a few cams and a couple
of snow anchors. Climbed by Bjørn Arntzen and Geir Jenssen, 19. April 1984. From Alpine Journal 1975: Winter climbing in Lyngen (excerpt) J. M. G. Sheridan "In the early winter of 1973, the Mountain Leaders of the Royal Marines and one of their Instructors' Courses, were given clearance to visit the Lyngen Alps in N Norway on completion of their Arctic Training. From Anntind (Imagáisi) a steep descent was made to climb Ellendaltind to the W which boasts a short but very fine ridge between the summit peaks." |
