The
weather may be a bit cold for the season, as we park
the car at
Vabuleino, on the north side of the lake Vavatn,
at 1150m. The slopes up to
Hydalsberget are seen to the
right.
|
Just a
bit further up we find this wall of snow, 6-8m high. |
The
lake Vavatn, seen from1350m altitude, is still frozen. When I was here
almost exactly one year ago there was no ice. The car can barely be seen a
little to the right of the middle.

At the
first summit, Hydalsberget v 1740m, after a little
more than 1,5h. A
view to the south. |
Dante is heading for the main summit. The
summit cairn is visible up to the right. |
Almost at the main summit. A
snow shower is passing. (Doesn't it look a bit cold and windy?)
|
|
|
|
At the main summit, 1775m. The weather is
grim right
now, with snow, hard winds and temperatures well below
zero. Hard to imagine it's the 2/6. But, we
are prepared,
we have warm clothes. |
It is beautiful up here. A view to the
southwest, with Vavatn
in the middle. |
To the
north we can see Ranastongi, 1900m.
|
|
|
|
Only
a short bit from the main summit is the viewpoint
Steinbunøse, 1760m.
Here is a vertical picture to the
bottom of the valley Hydalen, almost
900 altitude meters
below. This could be the "high point" of the hike,
if the
expression is allowed... |
Hydalen to the east, with the lake Sør
Hydalsvatnet in the middle.
|
More
to the northwest, Ranastongnøse.

|
Hydalen
in the other direction, to the west. Vavatn can be
seen behind the
mountain. |
Going
back towards the main summit.

A view towards Ranastongi, between
Steinbunøse and the main summit.
