I was awakened by the flurry of wind and snow blowing against the side of our Norwegian cabin. The wind through the valley often reaches 40 mph and it was hard to think in a few hours we would have to leave the warmth of our sleeping bags for the frigid waters out front. Alek Parker was the first to suit up and began his march towards the shoreline. Snow caving beneath his feet, he looks for a place to paddle out. For the moment he is still warm, but that moment will soon be a fleeting memory as the dense icy water will begin to engulf his core.
It is an eerie feeling navigating through icebergs to surf. Sand blowing in my face, I stood on the top of the dunes scouring the coastline for any sign of surf. Getting out the water we began to build a fire and bring life back into our fingers and face. We had been hiking for 8 miles and our final destination was finally within sight. It’s not very often that you have to paddle around construction rigs on the way to surf. 35196024.jpg (JPEG Image, 2000 × 1332 pixels) - Scaled (66%)
