A look out over Nordbotn.
“Botn” is the Norwegian word for the geological feature called a cirque. It’s also a common place name suffix in the country.
Looking down along Norddalen toward Lonkanfjorden.
I think the mountains way off in the distance on the other side of the fjord are, left to right: Rennarvasstinden, Nipa, Jolitinden.
