Hi guys! I’m sorry I haven’t had more time to post new material here. This time of year is really busy for us. Add my other duties and I have my plate full both at work and at home. I just got back from two weeks away last night, so I thought I’d share some of the pictures I shot during that time. I’ve also included this rough map that illustrates some of the areas I visited these two weeks.
I started my shift at our main base at Bringeland airport.
I spent the first day battling gusty winds in Sogn.
Accompanying a colleague for his first concrete gig.
It went really well so I left him to complete the job without me along as dead weight.
My stay at Bringeland took me all the way up to Trollstigen.

Busy days, so whenever we get a break we have to tend to the equipment.
Last mission of the day. Flying out meat from the mountains. Here on ground by Langfoss, Åkrafjorden.
Landed in the middle of a blueberry patch. This proved to be a distraction.
Lona.
The end of a great day.
