Hmm, I was just thinking that it would be nice to take a roadtrip in Norway late September or early October. Funny how things seem to fall into place lately.

Hmmmmmm, I had been planning a trip to Klagenfurt, Austria about the same time. It was to recover some old ground. I might see if I can change my plans.
Just a little update:
There is lots of information about the area on www.nordfjord.no/ in Norwegian, English and German. The gathering will be in Loen, a part of Stryn kommune. We are considering a few different alternative accomodations to keep us all fairly close together regardless of what standard (and price) of accomodation each of us wants.
Further updates will follow.
Sounds great!
Ole are there any good detailed maps over the area?
Do you know the best way of getting there from Stockholm?
Apprex. how many kilometers and how many hours of driving might it be?
AND
How many of us that might be coming shoot 12x20?

There are excellent paper maps (I'll bring a few), but in the meantime the best map is here: ngis2.statkart.no/ng2/ng2.html. You will have to first click on "Stedsnavn", then enter "Loen" in the "Søk etter stedsnavn" field. Select the second entry from the top, and it zooms right in. The button labeled "Vis større kart" expands the map. The rest shouldn't need translation...
From Stockholm it's about 950km drive, if you can manage an average speed of 60 km/hr that's 16 hours. At least the roads are good along that route, I'll be driving the 350km from Bergen where 60 km/hr is really pushing it!
I'll have to suggest that you use one of the many route planners on the web - like www.uk.map24.com/.
So far there are two 12x20" users (I won't call it "shooters") who have expressed an interest. I hope to be using 12x16" myself, and I must say I'm really looking forward to meeting other ULF'ers (and other LF'ers as well, of course)!
I have found these tickets:
Ticket price for 1 adult á 2.294,00 SEK per person.

Is there anyone else getting into Bergen around the same time that might want to split a rental car?
AND Whom else that is going will be shooting 12x20? I have a very important question for you regarding film!

Time to "bump" this one up a bit for those who (like me) hit the "New Responses" button first of all.
I'll be going up there next week to have another look around and speak to the locals. I already know there is lots to photograph, so I aim to take a few pictures to have something to show in advance.
Oh yes - I'd better speed up my web page plans. I'll post as much information as I can on a web page - soon...
Just a quick update: The information page is now up, lots of additional information to go in later:
