Flentpiken 1242m, 28/10 2012
Skurvenatten 1168m







Flentpiken, as it looks from the road north of Haglebu. It's a bit cold, 14 degrees
below zero when I start walking. But the snow is a little harder than yesterday,
making it easier to walk. I park at the same place as yesterday, on 880m altitude.
First it's about 1km walk on normal road, up to the last houses of Flatvollen, on 950m altitude.





A look to the south from Flatvollen, towards Bergshammaren 1263m. Half an hour later, now on 1100m. Fairly easy walk the last 140 altitude meters to the summit.





In the other direction is Skurvenatten, 1168m. The summit cairn of Flentpiken, reached after a little more than one hour from the car. Interesting that the summit cairn is placed on top of what seems to be a megalith.



North from the summit is the lake Piktjernet, on a high mountain area. Inzooming the peaks of Rondane, to the northeast, about 200km away.




Straight to the north, the peaks around Hemsedal. Skogshorn 1728m, with its
steep south wall a bit to the right
.
To the south, the area around Haglebu.





The lake Helgesetvatnet to the east. Another zoom, towards Gausta peak 1883m, 80km to the southwest.





On the way down I take the time to climb Skurvenatten as well, since it's there. Here is Flentpiken to the right, and Bergshammaren to the left. All the activities
of the weekend in one picture
.
Another picture of Helgesetvatnet, now from the summit of Skurvenatten.
