🧭 Aspect: Main face is South-West
☀️ Sunny, morning-afternoon sun, day shade

One boulder with lots of routes next to each other and there and back. Access is very easy and short so it is a popular (in Lapland scale) block.

Season: April-November. Early season start in March if - when - snow is removed. In March best time is 12-14 o'clock with direct sunlight hitting the main face, 4pm for easy left side.

Early boulder of Rovaniemi, 2003. Forest around the block was removed in 2021 or so and the landcape is now very different.
