Winter Trucking in Northern Norway, Sweden & Finland

Hi again everyone ... finally I got my act together, and finished this video..
it is a compilation with footage from different trips, during this past year..
Starting with a snowstorm at Junkerdal/Gräddisfjel, some drone footage from Skjervøy/Arnøy, a trip on snowchains to and from Hamnvik, more drone footage from Herøy, and last at trip to Kirkenes, Finmark.
I hope you will enjoy :)

Hey guy. I'm a retired Trucker from the usa USA and I accidentally stumbled onto your site here and it brought back many good memories of years past. I drove all of the USA and parts of Canada with a lot of my time in the Great Rockies and the Appalachian Mountains during the Winter months and I loved it. I'll be checking back here for more of your trips. Really enjoyed it. THANKS.

[@Slipse]

You are most welcome 😊👍 I am glad you enjoyed the trip, and that I could trigger a trip down memory lane 😉👍 Thank you for your comment 😊👍

[@jasxx1108]

Slipses your a gentleman respect 🫡 ✊ for towing that stuck couple your videos are great 👍 you show some beautiful 🤩 countries

[@chasedbythewsj2396]

The sound that the chains make is like the bells on santas sleigh

[@adelarsen9776]

I enjoyed it much. Thank you. Cheers and have a safe, healthy and relaxing summer. And thank you for delivering the salmon to DK which is shipped all over the world. Helping the world go around. :-)

[@victorhodgson8767]

You never fail to impress with your videos Slipses, a really good mix of views, with the background music just the right taste &volume . How about coming here to the west coast of Scotland, there's plenty of Salmon for you to collect!!. Regards.

[@Slipse]

Thank you very much Victor 😊👍 I would love to visit Scotland, one fine day 😊👍

[@victorhodgson8767]

Slipses if and when you do ! you'll not only find yourself among friendly folk, which will no doubt includes others who's forefathers used the seas as their " road" ,arriving in their ----- " longboats" !!. , (probably decided to stay as the winters tend to be milder).

Endnu en fremragende video, Flemming ! Når man selv kun har kørt sydpå, er det virkelig interessant og fascinerende at se de her optagelser. Pyha.. de elementer du skal lægge arm med, er godt nok noget helt andet! Det skinner igennem at du har en megasolid erfaring i at køre på det nordlige Skandinavien. En stor fornøjelse at se dig i arbejde!

[@Slipse]

Tusind tak Hans 😊👍 jeg startede også med at køre syd på, Grækenland, Albanien, Rumænien og Bulgarien fortrinsvis.. Jeg har altid haft en forkærlighed for kørsel, der er totalt uforudsigelig.. eller bøvlet om du vil 😂 samt en vild trang til at se hvad der gemmer sig bag det næste hjørne 😉

Slipses, you should get an award from the Norwegian Tourist Board for promoting the beautiful landscape.

Good to see you back,never tire of magnificent scenery in your vids.True gent pulling the stranded motorist out of the snow,wouldn't happen in my part of the world most likely wind the window down and shout something in French ha ha.People like the sound of snow chains,the engine brake sounds better is it a Jake Brake.Not sure if Jakes are fitted on Scannias,anyways safe motoring,stay warm in your very nice truck.

Hello. New subscriber in USA State of Georgia, where there is no snow and 100 degree weather. Totally awesome to watch your videos, the snow and beauty of your country. Over the last few months my twin sister and I have watched trains, planes, buses, but your truck videos have been the best in showing the country side. Your mild weather would shut us down. It's hard work for you so thanks for sharing the trips.

You Norway truckers are hard core. Much respect !! You could not pay me enough money to be on some of the roads in your video at night. Great scenery. Keep making these great videos .

[@Slipse]

Thank you very much Mark 😊👍 I will do my very best to continue making these little videos 😉 just a remark, I know a lot of the footage, seems to be at night, because of the darkness obviously 😁 but mid winter this far north, only holds around 4 hours of daylight, from 10am to 2pm, the remaining 20 of the day it is pitch black 😉 Whereas June and July, it is daylight 24 hours above the Arctic Circle 🤗

Thank you very much MrRinkly 😊👍 it's always great to hear from you 😊

[@xpost9381]

Good video and nice views. You even had a picture of Stetinden (voted to be Norway's national mountain ). I know these places in the north since it's my home. The land north of the moral circle and the land of the midnight fun. You seem to get local knowledge of the places, the roads and weather conditions .... and know how to deal with it. Not every foreign truck driver can say that..... Nothing can replace experience and knowhow. In Kirkenes you delivered some stuff at a "factory" - as you call it. To me it look like KIMEK (Kirkenes Mekaniske) - a ship yard that delivers repair and maintainace to the maritime sector - specially to the fishing fleet and to the offshore/oil sector in the Barents Sea. It's used both by Norwegians and Russians. So Kirkenes is an important and high competent center. I guess you noticed that the street signs are also in Russian. If you go to the library you will meet Russians working there and they have a whole section with books in Russian. There are quite a lot of Russians living in this area. Some time back I saw a number that around 25% of all marriages in Finnmark region are between Norwegian men and Russian woman. For hundreds of years there has been influx of Finnish people to this region. At places like in Bugøynes they, still today, are Finnish speaking. In addition you also have the Sami population - with their own language. So in this region you will have the meeting of 4 different languages that coexist side by side. So people there are multilingual and multicultural. I say this to make people - that see this - aware of that this area is not an empty wildernes with a few people living in isolation and in the past. The reality is quite different I can also say that no other place in the world will you find a modern infrastructure so far north. It's equally far norh as the north shore of Alaska - for example. it's a quite large area called Troms og Finnmark fylke ( county ) with an area of 75000 sq. km. In comparison is Denmark 43000 sq.km. The distance from end to end - along the main road (E6) - is around 1000 km. So it's good that there comes a Danish guy who like to be a part of the logistics - in order to keep things going up here in the north. So take care and drive safe.....

[@Slipse]

Thank you so much for the additional info on the Finnmark region.. Awesome 😊👍👍👍 I did mention in the video, that Kimek is a shipyard, but yes saying inside the factory, was a bit off.. it should have said workshop 😉 The fishing vessel, that was being sandblasted in the background, was in fact a Russian vessel. I love Norway, specially the north, and I've always felt very welcomed there 😊🤗

[@pierremedico3770]

Wouahh...first-class video as always ! beautiful scenery, thrilling trips up & down, the Austrian couple will well remember your professionnal help. Your driving & filming art reads like poetry.

[@bobyoung1698]

After watching this in its entirety I understand why Scandinavian truckers have so many lights.😊 It was nice to see a glimpse of Finland. My daughter-in-law is Finnish and she has told me how cold and snowy it can be.👍

[@Slipse]

Yes, winter up north is pretty dark 😁 with only around 4 hours of daylight in December and beginning of January north of the Arctic Circle.. I believe you are blessed to have a Finnish daughter in law, people from Finland are in general a nice easy going people, and they aren't the kind to give up, just because times are a little tough 😉👍

[@annekeaustin5636]

From Grahame in Holland: You always have me sitting in the passenger seat Slipses. Your vlogs keep taking me back to being on the road during the 80's.(as you already know). When you were re-loaded and your gene wanted to turn left into Russia I can understand totally. I would feel the same, every time. Only a fellow long haul truck driver can fully understand why you want to see what's around the next bend and over the next hill. It's in the blood. Keep well, stay safe, and keep on the black bit between the two green bits my friend. Greetings from Holland!!

Thank you very much Tommy 😊👍 I've only used a chain for my steering axle twice in my career.. and always on the right tire, in case it should break, it won't smash the steering gear, which is situated in the left wheelwell 😉 I've been using chains on my trailer, more often, but still it is in extreme conditions, where it starts to rain upon the snow /ice that we normally drive on
