Abstract Saana, in North Saami Sáná, is a large single mountain in the westernmost part of Finnish Lapland and comprised to be part of native lands of the Saami.

For the Finns, the mountain is an iconic aesthetic symbol, but some Saami understood the illumination as an insensitive and colonial act and they strongly opposed the project. Employing a discourse analytical approach this article presents and analyses the debate of 2017, but also older texts written about Sáná.
