	Norway - Hike into Utladalen to Vettisfossen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Vettisfossen is supposed to be the highest fall (275m) of norway, concerning the absolute free drop (without cascades).
		This alone is a good reason to hike there, what makes the hike even more attractive is the valley Utladalen which provides a beautiful background.
		Actually, not even a person we met there who worked in the factory which produces this very kind of latters wanted to use it...only my father was crazy enough to cross the river (twice).

	Ari's Base Camp - Mountains/Jotunheimen
		The archetype is Vettisfossen in Utladalen (the highest free falling water fall in northern Europe) which falls free for 270 m, giving four pitches up a detached pillar (WI6, 330 m, FA by Henry Barber and Rob Taylor in 1977).
		330m high Vettisfossen is a lofty goal for true experts (WI6 with 270m continuous free hanging pillar, propably hard enough for most people!) while Avdalsfossen is better suited for mere mortals (200m, WI3).
		First ascent of Vettisfossen by Henry Barber and Rob Taylor in 1977 is legendary, as the pair had to climb upper part lay-backing with their hands, as the water reportedly flew horizontally for around 20m from pick holes.
