Nibbi,
close to Hemsedal, is in the middle of the picture.
To the right are
the steep cliffs leading up towards
Skogshorn.
|
By
the parking place at
Løkjestølane on 940m altitude.
The final part of the road is a payroad.
(40Nkr). |
The
cliffs towards Skogshorn are quite impressive.
|

|
|
The
trail follows the stream, with its melting water falling
down the
mountain. |
The same stream, now on 1400m.
Skarvanfjellet is in the background. |
Marcus
and Daniel are contemplating the enigmas of life, at 1500m altitude.
Skogshorn rises in the background.

The summit cairn of Nibbi, 1741m, reached
after 2,5h.
The picture is taken towards the south. |
To the north the peaks of Jotunheimen are
visible. They say there is a lot of snow there this year.
|
Time to
move on towards Skarvanfjellet. This snowfield doesn't seem to present
any difficulties at first.
|
|
|
|
But
then we see the steep fall with an overhang just ahead
of us. We move,
as the tracks show, carefully down and
glide the last part. |
The
summit cairn of Skarvanfjellet, 1735m.
Apart from the steeper section, the route was without any problems and
took about half an hour. Daniels
sweater temporarily
embellish the cairn.

Descending again.
