Håhaugen from Andås E39

Date:
16.03.2019
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
1:21h
Distance:
3.6km

Started by taking the bus (or more correctly buses, as four in total was required) to the crossroads west of Eikefettunnelen (bus stop called “Andås E39”). From there I walked back along the main road towards the known trailhead for Håhaugen . Thankfully there was plenty of space on the outside of the guard rails, so I was clearly separated from the high-speed traffic. The trailhead was easily located, but as expected the trail quickly disappeared. But it was still straightforward to make progress up the small valley north of the summit. At the top of the valley I located what seemed like the easiest place to ascend, and while relatively steep and requiring light climbing, it did not provide any real difficulty, except for one spot where the snow was extra slippery.

Kvitanosi from Gullbrå

Date:
10.03.2019
Characteristic:
Backcountry skiing
Duration:
4:25h
Distance:
15.2km

Ever since the earlier attempt to reach Kvitanosi was abandoned only 500 meters from the summit , I had been waiting for another opportunity. And with a near perfect weather forecast for skiing, I managed to convince a colleague of mine to join. Also this time the trip started from Gullbrå, but the light rain, wind and dense fog from the last visit was today replaced by blue skis and next to no wind. Quite cold when leaving Gullbrå (-11 degrees), but we quickly got warm when starting the steep climb and leaving the shade behind. We were clearly not alone in thinking that this day was a good day for skiing to Kvitanosi , as there were fresh tracks by several skiers that we could follow on our way up the mountain, and with 10-15 centimeters of new snow, we were more than happy to follow in their tracks instead of having to make our own. After the initial >>>
