Mount Shivling Expedition
“The mountain decides whether you climb or not. The art of mountaineering is knowing when to go, when to stay, and when to retreat.” — Ed Viesturs.
This is my journal from the Mount Shivling Expedition.
My first Ice Climbing experience
Ever since I moved to Norway, I promised myself that I will learn new sports whenever opportunity arises. Being an avid mountaineer, I never really considered ice climbing as something I would look up to. Yet, when I saw that one of my favorite outdoor brands is organising an Ice Climbing trip, I got intrigued. Knowing that I could learn and practice from the best in the business (Norrona’s brand ambassadors: Matthias Scherer and Tanja Schmit) I made up my mind. Two weeks after submitting my application I found myself in Rjukan, a small Norwegian town located 3 hours drive away from Oslo, and so the adventure began.

I guess through life, time means different things to you at different stages. I mean, when you are young and it’s the beginning you don’t see the end of time. And so, you have time for everything. But at some point you reach the realization that you are closer to the end than the beginning. Then time takes on a whole other meaning and value.
Creating an Inclusive Environment for Women in Ski Touring
“It’s nice to be out with other women, I usually just tour with my boyfriend/husband/partner/male friends.” I’ve made and heard this statement too many times. Co-leading a Women’s Ski Touring Program this winter has started to help me discover how to get more women out touring.

My Relationship With Nature
As my life has evolved, so has my relationship to nature. I’ve been living in different places and I’ve been in different phases of my life, but nature’s always been there in one way or another. I’m Oscar Frick, and my life’s been a journey taking me from the deep forests of southern Sweden, through the big city life before coming out the other side having figured out that among the mountains is where I belong.
