Trollveggen Dawn

Romsdal, Norway | 2009

Dawn glow illuminates the massive east face of Trollstinden, which towers almost 6,000 vertical feet over the Romsdalen valley. The famous (amongst climbers) Trollveggen, or "Troll Wall", is just on the other side of this spire. It's the tallest vertical mountain face in Europe, with a sheer, in some parts overhanging, 1000m (3,300 ft.) wall.

Needless to say, it was quite a spine-tingling experience to shoot right on the edge of a vertical mile drop off. This was shot at 7mm; the bottom-right corner of the frame is basically looking straight down.

For three mornings in a row I repeated the rugged 3,000-foot hike in the pre-dawn darkness up the west side of the mountain to this spot until I finally got clear enough eastern skies to get some good dawn glow on this peak. Photo © copyright by Jack Brauer.
