Trøgasetnatten 1233m, Norway 7/3 2015








  Trøgasetnatten rises just north of Haglebu, and could be concidered a nice peak
  to climb during winter. Around 400 altitude meters makes this a half day tour.
  I climbed it the same day I drove up here, before checking in at the motel.
  Seeing the summit, I first plan to climb from the southern side, in the middle of
  this picture. but then I change my mind and climb straight on, where it's steeper.






  Reaching the tree limit at 1050m.   Looking south from 1050m. Norefjell in the background.





  Higher up it gets steeper, and also stronger winds. As it reaches full storm it
  feels unsafe to continue, with the risk of simply blowing away and loosing all grip.
  I walk diagonally to the north until it gets flatter, and then continue up
.
  The main summit from the west. I must focus of stayig on my feet.





  To the west there is a larger, flat, high mountain area.   View from the summit. To the east a mighty lenticular cloud has formed.





  Going down again. The lake  Helgesetvatnet with Norefjell in the background.
