Hi,

Came across this ridgeline whilst doing a little research on Senja in Norway. Called the Oskornan (Devil's Jaw), anyone know any more? Looks spectacular

Following, that looks mindboggling. Not a lot climbing related I can find about it either in English or when searching for 'Oskornan klatring' 

In reply to VictorM:

Looks immense doesn't it! An arctic Cuillin!

In reply to hugh1201:

Wow, even looks good on Google Maps, where most things get "softened".

Ask Bent Eilertsen at Senja Lodge Mountain Guides, he knows its history, he is the local guide. It is a great place to visit.

There are a couple of alpine lines on that side of Ersfjorden.

Pic is a shameless plug, but those mountains are stunning in winter.

In reply to hugh1201:

And these guys did the traverse.

Google translate should be OK, but there is a lot of dialect.

In reply to hugh1201:

That was exactly my thought!

In reply to GarethSL:

I can't see any dialect, its just Norwgian bokmål, even though Signar (the climber who owns the blog) is from Lurøy

In reply to hugh1201:  Booked my trip to Senja for this summer... cheap tickets w/ SAS

Indeed, I have no idea why I wrote that!
