About this site – florus.no

When I started planning my first major Norwegian expedition, I struggled to find comprehensive information in one place. This website aims to be the resource I wished I’d had then.

This platform, born from my transition from corporate leadership to mountain exploration, shares knowledge about Norwegian mountain adventures. The “About Me” section provides more about my journey.

Mountain Insights for Business Leaders

I regularly draw parallels between mountaineering and business leadership. The articles explore how mountain experiences shape corporate decision-making, from risk management to team dynamics. These insights serve both seasoned executives and emerging leaders seeking fresh perspectives on leadership challenges.

My approach combines systematic business analysis with authentic mountain experiences. Drawing from two decades of global technology leadership, I apply structured methodologies to mountaineering and business strategy. Each expedition report includes thorough preparation notes, detailed equipment analysis, and comprehensive debriefings, reflecting the same rigour I apply to business transformation projects.

What You’ll Find Here

My expedition reports detail more than routes. Each includes daily statistics, equipment performance reviews, and practical insights—from the 21-day MASSIV trek across Norway’s mountain regions to technical glacier climbs.

The technical section covers route planning, equipment selection, and safety protocols. The Downloads area provides tested packing lists, GPS tracks, and planning templates—all verified in Norwegian conditions.

From Secret Cabins to Summit Attempts

I have an oddly specific hobby of discovering and documenting hidden cabins in Oslo’s eastern forest. These “hemmelige hytter i Østmarka,” as we call them in Norwegian, have become something of a specialty.

Features and Tools

The Route Map shows live progress during expeditions via satellite tracking, updated every 10 minutes regardless of mobile coverage. This adds both safety and engagement to longer journeys.

The Knowledge Base guides skill progression from basic mountain safety to technical climbing, providing practical tips based on actual experience.

Every route, piece of equipment, and technique described here has been tested in Norway’s demanding conditions. Whether planning your first Norwegian mountain adventure or seeking technical insights for advanced expeditions, you’ll find detailed, practical information to support your journey.
