This time
I start
from Grövelsjöns mountain lodge. At
about 850m in norhern Dalarna, close to the border
of
Norway in the west. |
Shortly
after start, at the tree limit on 900m. The morning
sun shines
on Sølen
1755m, almost 50km west inside
Norway. |
Now above 1000m, The sun has reached the
closer peaks, still in Norway. St. Lifjellet, Salshögda and Salsfjellet
all reach over1200m
|

And here's the summit of Jakobsberget. It's
fairly flat and
the snow is pretty hard. Easy to walk with
snowshoes. |
Impressive
snow formations at the summit, 1103m. I
needed less than one
hour up here. While I can see the
beauty of all the white up here. And the mast, well... |
But,
I'm here to enjoy the views. Looking to the south there
is a flat high
mountain area. My original plat was to go up
here and then back down
again. Now I change my mind
and decide to go a bit to the south first.
This is lovely!

| The summit cairn
is,
in my view, nicer to look at than the mobile mast. |
36km to
the southeast is the characteristic peak of Städjan. Peter and
I climbed that one in August last
summer. It was warmer then... |
Closer
than that, just 6km to the east is Storvättershågna 1204m. It's the
highest peak on the Swedish side, so far
to the south. |

I
need just below one hour going south to Blåkläppen
summit
1022m.
The weather is rapidly changing now, increased winds and
lower clouds
moving in. I cant see Jakobshöjden any more, it's covered
with clouds.
There's no point in staying too long up here so I start
my descent. But
I also realize how lucky I was with the
weather, As I reach the lodge,
some 30 minutes later,
it's all cloudy. No peaks to be seen
anywhere. |
