Ice climbing at Trängslet and Klövsjön
During the winter season of 2008/2009 I joined up with a bunch of ice climbers for a few trips to Trängslet and Klövsjön.
I'm glad I met them because this season I climbed more ice than I've climbed in all previous years combined.
I have named the photographer for each photo except for photos taken by me.

 Back at Trängslet for my fourth ice trip of the season. This time with Per (in photo) and Andreas. |

 It's a nice climb this one. |
 It sees a lot of traffic though. |
