==Climate and permafrost== The mean annual air temperature at Juvvasshøe is . This value is extrapolated from a larger number of official Norwegian weather stations. According to the experience in other alpine and polar regions this temperature indicates that permafrost must be widespread and probably extends to a depth of several hundred meters. Within the EU-sponsored project PACE (Permafrost and Climate in Europe), a deep vertical borehole in bedrock was drilled in August 1999 on Juvvasshøe at an altitude of above sea level. The stable ground temperature at a depth of is still . The measured geothermal gradient in the drillhole of per allows a calculation of a permafrost thickness of , a proof that widespread permafrost occurrences must exist in the Jotunheimen area at these altitudes.
