Nibbi 1741m, 4/6 2011
Skarvanfjellet 1735m





 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.
