- Hi again all :)
Winter bites again... This time it's a trip to Bodø, just before Easter, join me on this trip to Bodø, we start with this winters inevitable convoy drives across the Arctic Circle, on the mountain Saltfjellet.. Then south to the island Herøy, and trouble in the hills near the village Snåsa...
The snowplow drivers have my respect. Great video, thanks for taking us along with you.
Complimenti bellissimo video...
Snow driving is down to technique and method as well as forward thinking being ready to react instantly to a changing situation.
Anticipation awareness vital.
Traction assistance to suit conditions ... chains/no chains as required.
Maintaining movement even walking pace is vital, .... once stopped can be difficult to regain motion again.
Look a long way ahead, allowing longer stopping distance than normal dry road driving, read the road and camber then drive to to suit what you can see.
Happy snow driving, and don't forget to carry a shovel with you and some rough matting to act as a wheel ladder if you get stuck.
A fine video, shows it as it really is....tough going! 😉👊👍Good luck to all.
Thank you 😊👍 and I can only agree, however you forgot one essential thing, good winter tires..!
Love this video,, I lived in Canada many years ago, and snow never really bothered them,, Here in the UK,, 1 inch of snow and everything shuts down.... Fantastic video.
Thank you very much Mark 😊👍
Greetings out of S Africa - we never have snow - so the scenery in this video is absolutely fantastic - I just love it!
I have really enjoyed this. I am a retired truck driver in the states. Safe travels
Thank you very much Larry 😊👍 I hope at the same time, it will trigger a trip down memory lane 😉
Hi
Great video, and it brings back a lot of memories. I'm originally from Bodø and due to work i used to drive from Andenes in the north to Namsos in the south, every month for almost 5 years in a Sprinter van. I've seen the most and experienced every weather conditions, as probably you have. And i can concur, driving over the Helgeland bridge when the light is yellow is rather scary. Living in the far south now it will remain memories. Safe travelling, Slipses! 👍
Thank you very much 😊👍 jeg ønsker deg en god sommer ☀
Thank you, i can die in peace now. Bucket list checked. See a Horse, a lama and sheep crossing the road at the same time! Awesome
Hahaha 😂😂 Glad to be of service Mr President 😁👍 yes, it was one of those situations, if I hadn't caught the scene on video, no one would have believed me 😁 anyway, I hope you will stay around for much longer 😉😁👍
That got a good laugh out of me.
Fantastic Video! Thank you for taking us with you!
Some amazing roads!
18:50 looks so slippery I almost fell out of my chair xD
Hahaha 😂 remember to wear the seat belt 🤣🤣 I am glad you enjoyed the trip.. Working on the next video, hope it will be ready next weekend 😁👍
Good video like 👍 your videos mate good 👍 luck keep on trucking 🤩👍
Everyone below has said it brilliantly! I also appreciate the captions that share so much detail!! It has been a very mild winter here in western Pennsylvania with more April snow than the rest of the winter; the snow never stayed on the ground more than a day.
Thank you very much John 😊👍
Well, that can be the kind of snow, that causes havoc in a very short time 😉
Normally I love the winter season, but this year, with such mild temperatures, I seriously look forward to Spring taking over 😉
Spectacular!! I love driving in brutal weather!!
Me too 😁👍
Jesus... I don't know how i've got to watch this, but... I don't miss Norway. 7 years spent on those roads-NEVER COMING BACK. Thumbs up my friend, respect 👌
Thumbs up from Tete Mozambique, keep Rolling my friend good one
I have never seen so much snow in my life and I'm from 🇨🇦
Hej Slipse, very great video, I have been a few times in Scandinavia in wintertime, due to my family, and I know that it can be a hard time on the road. The E6 is sometimes a very though road you can struggle with, for 8 years I had some problems on the Kråkmo fjell, before Skarberget.. Keep on the good work and drive safe!! Hilsen fra Nederland.
Thank you very much Rob 😊👍 yes there are some tricky bits scattered all over this beautiful country 😉
Lovely video from the beginning with the horse and the amazing view of the sunrise , wishes my truck driver from Peru 🚛👍🎈
Thank you very much 😊👍 I am glad you enjoyed the trip 😊👍
Absolutely amazing content. Loved watching every second of it
Thank you for making this great video. To me these weather conditions are unimaginably difficult for truck driving.
Super video! Thanks! Greetings from Holland.
Such a beautiful place. Love and respect from India!!
Thank you very much Sunit 😊👍
Great video, I love it thanks 👍👍
Thank You so much Slipses for the video. Always looking forward to your videos man. Take Care and enjoy the spring and the coming summer! Already 85 degrees or so in Southeastern Arizona!!
Thank you very much JJ 😊👍 for the first time in my career, I am really looking forward to see the winter go, this one has been not only long, but also more than ordinary demanding, because of the mild temperatures this season..
Thank you 🙏🏾 what beautiful place video was excellent thanks and be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video. Beautiful scenery. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome, I am happy you enjoyed it 😊👍
Great video, ty from Italy👍

nice video, good trip and beautiful landscapes
Hello, I think your videos are so interesting to see the places and communities you drive through. Things you probably take for granted as a driver is completely new and interesting to someone here in the USA. Plus we see all these travel shows, but they rarely show the long drive scenes which is a reality of travel. Your commentaries are also great. Thank you for sharing and helping to expand my understanding of the roads you travel.
Thank you very much 😊👍 well yes, parts of the trips are becoming "everyday" but I still enjoy the scenery, there's never 2 days, that are the same.. Mind you, though I travel through Norway all the time, I am still from the neighbor country Denmark, which is so very different from Norway 😊
@@Slipse Forgive me if this topic is already covered in your videos, as I just discovered your channel. But is it possible to show inside the rest areas you stop at? Several years ago we drove from Venice to Ljubljana and were **shocked** 😲 at how nice the rest areas were and how they cooked fresh, healthy, and delicious meals for us served with silverware. Plus the people were *so* nice. That experience is something we still talk about all the time, bec the USA rest areas are basically all McDonald's type places. Again, thank you.
Kudos to you driving in this kind of weather.
Thank you very much 😊👍
Thank you driver. Your country is beautiful.
Awesome video! I would love to go trucking in Norway....
A really stunning & great video with spectacular views of your daily tough job & amazing colors of the sky/clouds/sea on Heroy.
Simply said : you made my Sunday. Thks you so much and take care of Yourselves & your family. Bonne continuation.
Thank you so very much Pierre 😊👍 and you take care of you and your family to 😉👍
Very good colleague well done and a great video take care many thanks.
Beautiful Norway. Drive save .fantastic views
Nice ..,l like snow
One more time, what a wonderful vidéo.....but I think you now got the habit about our comments 😉
This one is one of my best....most of the time you're always alone on your trip but this time , due to the winter conditions before crossing the mountain, we were allowed to see many others wonderful Norwegians trucks, that' s so fine ( for me , not for the guys queuing of course 😥) ....thank' s a lot mate , keep on truckin ' !
Greetings from Brittany.
Thank you very much Yvon 😊👍 my wife was right, I showed her the video, before I posted it, and asked her if this queue sequence was too long? She said - no, your audience wants to see the trucks 😊
Stay safe my friend 😊👍
Beautiful journey, I would have liked to be a trucker. I enjoy watching videos like this. Thanks for sharing.
Dıfferent world.Cold and slıppery.Greetıngs from Turkıye,take care
What's up from Florida, great 👍 video, snow is a beautiful thing 😍 great ride along. Beautiful landscape. Love to see more.
Great scenery and great music. Enjoyied it.
Hello from Houston Texas USA. Really enjoyed this video and hope to see many more!
Nice impressions and very good music. Absolutely brilliant video!! 🥰 ❄️ Thank you for showing us . I have subscribed. 😊✋
Thank you very much Pirelli 😊👍
Wieder ein ganz tolles Video von Ihnen aus Norwegen im Winter ❄️❄️🌨️🌨️🌬️☃️ auf ihrer Fahrt mit ihrem LKW 👍👌💪 Ich schaue mir sehr gerne ihre LKW - Videos an immer super spitze Videos gemacht , ganz großes Kompliment an Ihnen 🙏👏💯 Allzeit gute Fahrt und immer gut nach Hause ankommen 👍🙏🍀🇩🇪
Nice Video. Thanks. OnSpotChains, did not know such things exists ...
Reminds me of when I used to drive trucks in central Quebec, Canada. Of course, we had trucks with 2 drive axles, and our trailers were 20.9m long. Driving in severe winter conditions was brutal, often temperatures were -40c with a strong wind. You had to be ready to fix any problem yourself, or else wait for a day or more to be rescued. We didn't have as many hills, so we rarely had to use tire chains, though.
Thanks for the great Video!
Great video, long time ago i was up there early 90's with my 143. Keep up the good work and be safe on the road
Thank you very much Martin 😊👍 I have very fond memories of the 143 too 🤗
Look beautiful with snow ❄️ so I think 🤔 in sommer time is much better great 👍
It's is beautiful up here in the summer, but winter is just better fun 😉👍
I love the sound of chains biting into the ice 🤩
Me to 😁 but I find it quite boring to mount them 😉😂👍
@@Slipse Very true! They are quite heavy, and it's cold as heck!
Brilliant videos, discovered them by "accident". We love Norway have been up and down the coast several times with Hurtigruten. Keep the videos coming, especially the "new" ones with small comments and explanations. If we could also see the small ferries you use along the way, it would be great.
I promise I will, winter is beginning to show now, so I expect to get some nice footage soon 😊👍
New here and soon in coming winter starting to cross the baltic Region From Finland depature and i think i Will need to use your show and a lot to learn From your experience .
Hi :) nice trip :) ice on the road , some truckers know how to drive on ice :) greetings from Haugesund :)
Great trip video. Thank you👍🏻
Thank you very much Peter 😊👍
Very well done. You have some very cool trucks over there! I'll now peruse your videos for some summer time scenes. Very beautiful countryside, even for winter. Stay safe and warm.
Bruce
Thank you very much Bruce 😊👍 I hope I can deliver some more summerish videos soon 😁👍
Coming to Norway from August until September. Area Alesund to find a job as truckdriver and to look for a flat to rent. When i see these things i onely makes me more willing to do it. Great clip. thank you for sharing
You never disappoint Slipses, that's a cracking video, probably the best yet, and here's another greetings from Scotland.
Thank you very much Victor 😊👍
🙌🏻respect,it's a crazy job in wintertime,I was 01/2020with hurtigruten, but the streets like this I've never seen. Keep safe on your way.Best regards to you and your family.Thank you for share. Helsing fra tyskland. Gitta 😉🙌🏻🥰🇧🇻
Thank you very much Gitta 😊👍 I am glad you enjoyed the trip 😉 a trip with Hurtigruten is definitely on my bucket list 😊 Stay safe down there in my neighbor country 😊
Very impressively shown
winter road.Thanks
I discovered your channel yesterday and I already love it ! Greats videos and driving ! Keep it up 😉💪
It makes me want to go back to norway so much !
Thank you very much Luca 😊👍
Belas imagens , parabéns ! Adoro o canal ! Grande abraço !!! Brasil ...
Thank you very much Adriano 😊👍
Well put together and a beautiful country
Thank you Karl 😊👍
Beautiful video thank man
Don’t get me wrong . Love all of your trips
Hi Maggie, yes I am driving like always, I am just way behind in my editing of new videos.. Trying hard to catch up, but with limited spare time, it will take me a little while 😉
What a ride. Kept me on the edge of my seat for the whole video. Amazing footage. I've been a Canada/US truck driver for just over 5 years now and have seen all sorts of winter weather, but THAT is something else.
Beautiful scenery, thank you so much for sharing. I've always been curious to see what trucking in Europe is really like, and it seems like it's just the same as it is here, nothing but delays upon delays upon delays (and I'm guessing no pay for those delays too?).
Stay safe and keep the shiny side up. I hope to see more in the future.
Video bellissimo complimenti
Wow,Your touch is amazing and clear when driving on the difficult road, respect👍

First time watching ur videos I enjoyed watching in other countries other then USA
Nice video from you again, love to see from around my hometown, Rognan, which is close to saltfjellet, this winter have been extreme, they say that this has been the worst winter in 60 years.
Thank you very much Roy-inge 😊👍 yes, this winter has seemed to last forever.. and the worst part is, that it's been so mild all along
@@Slipse yeah the coldest we have had here is around 15 minus celcius, last winter was around 24 minus celcius.
Heia Flemming,
Great video. Enjoyed it much. Sorry you got stuck and had to put on the chains but that's life. Happy days and good summer to you. Cheers and best regards, Ade :-)
Hei Ade 😊👍 tusen takk 😊
Yes the chain up thing was just a little hiccup 😁😁😁 God sommer till deg og dine 😊👍
very hard work! you have beautiful trucks! respect for you!
Norway is lovly. I enjoy to se RailCowGirl on the Bergen linje.
Nice to hear the motor working and the gear up and down.
I my self hat driw citybus i København,
but not so narrow playcis as you and you beatyful contry.
Thanks for looking aut you front ;)
Respect hard job😉
You are uploading a great content Slipses. I love to see more of this videos from you. Thank you Slipses.
Excellent choice of music, and I am intrigued by the scenery in the far north of Norway. Great videos, many thanks from New York State
Très belle vidéo et très belle musique Country !
I hope you washed your rig after all that salt. I live in California but grew up in Minnesota and that salt ruins vehicles. I drive big trucks here and haul rental equipment. Loved your video , great scenery and it reminds me of Minnesota winters.
Thank you very much 😊👍 and yes, frequent washing is nessecary in those conditions 😉
very awesome video and how hard to climb that hill thank you very much!!!
Great video and a rather nice rig.
Thank you very much Nigel 😊👍
Hi, really, it's a very nice, amazing video, and you are a perfect driver. Very beautiful
very very good nice thank you , you happy new year
Fantastic video man - keep them coming....
I promise to do my very best Maria 😊👍
Hello from NYC! 😎 The parts of Norway I've seen (video) are beautiful! 👍 In my next life I hope to be born in a Scandinavian country, I won't be too picky. 😂
Hahaha 😂 I'll keep my fingers crossed for you 😉👍👍👍
lol
just take the trip over after the covid situation is over.
I loved this !! I felt like I was right there !!
I'm happy to hear this, then i must have done something right ;)
Wow. All good. Loved the music half-way through. Good.
Thank you very much David 😊👍
i think this is one the best video i have really come across
Thank you very much Lydia 🤗👍
@@Slipse welcome you really doing a great
do you mind getting to know ourselves off here if you dont mind
Very Nice Video..Thanks for uploading.! Keep going ..! With Luv 4m India ..👍
Fun to see familiar roads. Those hills between Steinkjer and Grong seem steep
Great footage id never manage what u do on ice and snow its bad enough in the winter here in the forests when driving the logging truck plenty slips and slides . U guys have really got it sorted . The bogie lift on the truck is a must for bad road conditions i know that much . U get so much traction when u lift the rear axle up polish driver probbs had no chains on pls take care stay safe .
Thank you very much Ian 😊👍 yes, the right tool is half the work 😉 I and can't stress enough, what a difference GOOD Winter tires means, in my opinion they should be mandatory for all vehicles, on all axles, in any country, that can expect the least bit of snow and ice during winter 😉 You stay safe too, these are wierd times we live in..
@@Slipse you too my friend pls take care stay safe i hope u have had a great weekend i meant to add i hate snow and ice especially ive nearly come a few disasters on ice . Ur pretty much a passenger when the truck takes off on ice . A few years ago a frirnd stopped to open a forest gate on a slope he stopped the truck put the habdbrake on left it ticking over to go open the gate to get out he got to the gate it was icy in bits on the forest road . He got to the gate started to undo the padlock looked round to see the truck coming towards him he managed to jump out of the way the truck stopped about 6 feet further away when it came to a non icy bit again but it just goes to show how accidents happen . He was on his own when this happened too and i was the next one to go into that wood much later that day it was thawing out and running with water on the track into the forest all the ice had more or less gone the road was back to bare ground . Ud hardly think it had bn icy at all . Just patches in the forest under the canopy where the sun hadnt got to the ground so much . Its a dangerous job but wouldnt really want to do anything else . Timber is a great job but u have to enjoy that lifesyle as trucking aint a job its a way of life . Im sure ud agree sir . U take care pls stay safe thanks for answering my message . Are u on face book by any chance would love to chat if ud like that . .. ian ..
Another brilliant video in such harsh conditions
Thank you very much Richard 😊👍
Brilliant video. Thank you
and thank you very much for your comment John 😊👍
Tak for endnu en god tur.
Velbekomme Peter 😊👍
Great video. That was some bridge must be a couple of km long. Good driving up the hill at the end 👍😄
Thank you very much Jim 😊👍 yes that bridge is something else isn't it 😉
Super, super interesting. Really lifting the videos to a new level. Hope you keep on sharing them, although it makes me miss Norway... :)
Thank you Oliver 😊👍 I promise I will do my very best 😉👍
Beautiful driving
Excellent video send more videos of winter Norway
Fin tur over Saltfjellet. Og fin film, moro og kunne vise att det er vinter og snø i Norge.
Hey there. I watched your beautiful video from a beautiful village of the north of Iran where near to Caspian sea. You're a real hero, driving on these roads requires special experience, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm a dumpertruck driver ،it's true that you have the modern trucks but driving in the snow is very very difficult
It is quite impressive. It reminded me when a snow storm suddenly struck Paris 10 years ago and we were all lost (some people had to sleep in their cars or at work).
The choice of those musics would perfectly fit to a "Transport Fever" game ;)
Well done video! I very much enjoyed it!
increible viaje... Saludos desde Chile
