Blåmannsisen, Glacier in Sørfold Municipality and Fauske, Norway
Located on the border of Fauske Municipality and Sørfold Municipality, Blåmannsisen extends over 87 square kilometers with a thickness reaching 400 meters in places.
The southern margin of the glacier contains a prominent end moraine that marks the maximum extent of ice coverage during the Little Ice Age period.
The name Ålmåjalosjiegŋa in Lule Sami language reflects the strong connection between the glacier and the indigenous communities of northern Scandinavia.
The glacier requires a demanding trek of 5.5 kilometers from Straumklumpen, with essential equipment including navigation tools and appropriate winter gear.
Three distinct outlet glaciers flow from the main ice cap, creating a complex system that feeds both Norwegian and Swedish hydropower networks.
