    Hi Anders ! Welcome !
    Come to Sardinia to climb with me when You want !
    Next summer I would like to go to Hell: I can reach Oslo with Ryanair, then what do You suggest from Oslo to Hell ? Is there train ? Do You know how much it costs ? And close to Hell is there a campsite ? Do I need to rent a car there ? Is there a guidebook on the net ?
    Thanks in advance

    hi..
    yes i used to live in Torino for a couple of years..love it!
    sardinia is an amazing place...but in summer is too hot..better in mid season...
    have a nice time over there!
    see you

    Wow ! FOR SURE this summer I will be climbing in Hell ! Where can I order the guidebook online ?
    Is it in english too ?
    What about other crags in the area ?
    Are they interesting or Hell is better without any doubt ?
    I would have many other questions:
    - how many routes are in Hell ?
    - where can I rent a bike to go from routes to supermarket ?
    - etc etc
    Too many questions :-), so I make You a proposal:
    why not YOU do the english guidebook JUST FOR HELL using lulu (www.lulu.com) ?
    If You do that me and other climbers on lulu site can buy the DOWNLOAD of Your guidebook and then print it by ourselves.
    If You do it I will buy for sure, so I can have all the informations before coming there.
    I can "help" You doing my list of informations I need.
    And I can translate Your guidebook in italian !
    What do You think about this ?
    Regarding flights:
    for sure direct flight is the fastest way, but with Ryanair I can fly to Oslo for about 10 euros, from Bergamo. I guess from Torino or Venezia to Trondheim may be the cost are more than 10 + 40 euros, am I right ? I must ceck on Norwegian site. Ciao !
    P.s. if You can fly directly to Cagliari, me too very very cheap, so, really, when You want we can meet up there ! If some other climbers would like to come we can organize the first “9b Roc Trip” around Cagliari !

    Hello Anders, welcome! Nice to see your picture of Oppdal & Trondheim. Actually in 2006, I studied six months in Trondheim's NTNU, where I lived in Moholt Studentby :) It's a kind of nostalgy remember that, it was really a cool period hiking around Norway, from the south fiords to the northest Tromsoe :) Maybe, I could come back for a visit and have a ski together in vassfjellet ;-) HADE BRA!

    Fantastic Anders, thanks very much !
    I know You have no copyright for THAT guidebook. I also know that You, as every other climber, WITHOUT COPYING that guidebook, can do Your own guidebook.
    I think it's a matter of RESPECT and honesty: if You are honest YOU CAN DO A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NEW GUIDEBOOK ABOUT THE SAME ROCK.
    Please, consider that Lulu lets You create a MULTIMEDIA guidebook:
    not only text and photos, but VIDEOS too !
    If You do a video (or even just a photo) for every single route in Hell, for example, I think this work from You is UNIQUE and for sure is much different from the already printed guidebook.
    The point is do to SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
    This is just my opinion. We can open a discussion about this, may be WITH THE AUTHORS of that guidebook, if they like. May be they themselves would like to do the multimedia version of their guidebook ?

    Ok, it's just because I prefer downloadable than paper guidebooks. I let You train, climb and work ;-) Call me when You like on skype, ciao!
