The exact border point is at the rectangular stone at the right side of the picture, which is taken in July 1996 at Bjørnfjell between Narvik (N) and Kiruna (S). (The picture is photographed from Swedish side.)

Behind and right of the border marker is a stone monument with signatures of King Carl Gustaf of Sweden and King Olav of Norway from the opening of the highway on 27 September 1984.

This photo actually perpetuates my daughter's first steps ever into her father's native country.
