Another
one day trip
to Norway. If you go from Grimsås,
it's only reasonable to go to the first mountains in
the
south. This is Haglebunatten
seen from the road. |
You can park the car at the
camping, then follow the trail
up to Haglebunatten. |
Clouds move in and put the
landscape in shadow, for a while. Bergshammaren, 1263m, rises
on the other side of the valley Fagerfetdalen.
|
|
|
|
However, better weather is moving in from
the north west. Fagerfjellet 1255m is visible behind. |
In the
picture it seems as if we are almost at the summit.
But it's about 70-80 altitude meters up there. Easy to get
fooled by a picture. |
At the
lower summit of Haglebunatten, 1265m. This place provides the best
views over Haglebu.

|
|
It's a bit windy
up here... |
Fagerfjellet
is still in shadow, but there is sun on
Hallingskarvet,
far
away at the horizon. |
We
are now continuing, about 500m
to the main summit.
|
|
|
|
Here
is an orientation plate. Dante tries to
identify the mountains at the horizon. |
A
beautiful snow sculpture on the large
summit cairn. |
Now
there is sunshine on Fagerfjellet in the foreground, while
Hallingskarvet fades away in shadows and clouds. It's magical
up here.

Norefjell
to the south east. You can also see the valley
leading to
Eggedal and further to Sigdal. |
I have
been up here once before. Then it was summer but lousy weather.
Today it's totally different, so beautiful. But windy and
cold... |
Gausta
peak in the south west. It's in clouds to the right in this picture.
|
|
|
|
A
winter sun, with snow and frost, combined with very
clear air, produces
deep colors and contrast in all
directions. Here's a look to the
west
|
Almost
down again. The ski slopes in Haglebu can be seen
on the other side of the valley. |
