Dear All,

There might be soft new snow. What do you think track or metal edged skis? During Easter? I would definitely pick lightweight racing gear, unless you know that you are going to do a _lot_ of trailbreaking, while skiing alone. During Easter you'll probably have some crust, at least underneath any new snow between now and then.

For description of the area see the DNT website page: http://ut.no/turomrade/femundsmarka The DNT website also shows what winter routes are marked: http://www.turistforeningen.no/artic...=6617&fo_id=15 You can use the Google translator to get a rough idea of what the DNT is saying if they do not have an English page.
