In reply to Alan James - Rockfax: I saw that, but Flatanger is hardly "the far north". I presume Björn meant Lofoten, Kvaløya or similar. Also no mention of trad there either although presumably there is plenty of rock around for that!
In reply to TobyA: After Flatanger Adam went north up to the Narvik area (not sure exactly where), and I guess most would consider this the far north

Good to see he's getting into trad! (best to avoid the groundfalls though)
