Store Hollendaren
- Date:
- 09.05.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
I dag hadde Siv og jeg planlagt en tur til Store Hollendaren. Da ombestemte vi oss for en tur til Breitinden som ligger i det samme området siden det så litt slakere ut på kartet og fristende for oss siden vi ikke var helt sikker på om Store Hollendaren kunne være aktuelt. Men da vi kjørte til Grøtfjorden ombestemte vi oss en gang til, for det så ut som at det var lite snø på turen inn i dalen som vi tenkte på å bruke. Derimot, parkeringsplassen for Store Hollendaren så ganske populære ut og så forventet vi at det skulle bli gode skispor som vi kunne benytte. Heldigvis ble vi en av de første bilene på parkeringsplassen, så det var ikke et problem for å finne en plass.
Etter å ha tatt skifeller og skiene på, begynte vi turen fra parkeringsplassen mot sørøst. Det var bare >>>
Middagstinden
- Date:
- 05.05.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
- Distance:
- 10.0km
I dag skulle det vært en tur til Ellendaltinden i Lyngen med Aline, Christian og Siv. Planen forandret seg veldig fort. Siden Aline og Christian var fremdeles slitne etter en tur til Tromsdalstinden fredag kveld, tok de en beslutning for å ikke bli med på en like lang tur i dag. Da var det bare jeg og Siv. Men istedenfor å dra til Lyngen, bestemte vi oss for å få til en like spennende tur i Tromsø-området pga at det så overskyet ut mot Lyngen.
Og så måtte vi tenke på et alternativ. Siv fortalte meg at hun kjente en venn som planla å dra til Middagstinden i Kattfordeidet samme dagen. Jeg må innrømme at Middagstinden ALDRI har vært en av de fjellene som var på min ‘du kan klare det’-liste, men ALLTID på min ‘prøv om et par år til’-ønskeliste siden jeg kjønte at det >>>
Steinskartinden
- Date:
- 02.05.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
Had a short trip after work with Aline and Christian again, this time to Steinskartinden in Kattfjord. We were fortunate again with gorgeous spring-like weather as we drove out of Tromsø at 4pm and were optimistic about getting some good snow since the usual route ascended from the north side of the mountain and would – we hoped, be less påvirket by the sun.
After conveniently spotting some obvious sets of ski tracks leading up the mountain from the road, we parked more or less closeby. For the first few hundred metres the snow was firm but not too hard. Unfortunately the condition deteriorated quickly as we gained height and when we were just above the treeline there was not much else apart from icy snow surface. The gradient was not the gentlest either, so it was a struggle to actually >>>
Tafeltinden
- Date:
- 28.04.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
- Duration:
- 6:30h
- Distance:
- 18.0km
I had waited for what had seemed like eternity for this day, but finally it happened that my long-term dream to climb a Lyngen peak was finally accomplished - although not a dream that I had long thought to happen on a pair of skis! Tafeltinden was our objective and I had Aline and Christian with me for company. In contrast to our first trip together ( Juledagstur til Durmålstinden ) on Christmas day during the mørketid, today’s trip could not have been more different! Mucho sun, long hours of daylight and plenty more snow. I picked them up at 8.30 since the first ferry from Breivikeidet to Svensby left at 10.00 on Sundays. I was worried that we wouldn’t make the ferry on time, but as things actually turned out, we ended up being the second car in the queue and waited for 40 minutes at Breivikeidet. Better to have waited >>>
Truger-tur på Riven
- Date:
- 23.04.2013
- Characteristic:
- Snowshoe trip
Second day of my visit to Senja with my mum, brother and mum's friend Tina. We had a bit of a late start but the sun was shining and it was definitely a day for spending some time outdoors. I couldn't really make up my mind about a small but exciting trip I could take mum and Tina on, but in the end I decided a visit to Riven could be nice. It was classed as an easy summer trip, and the map contours suggested it was not steep, so it was worth giving it a try.
My friend had lent me two pairs of truger and I had my skis, so my brother could either try walking by foot in the snow, or find something else to do. In the end he spent 2 hours walking from where we parked by the Riven tunnel down to Husøy - and back again, just to buy a drink and something to eat! For the three of us - mum, Tina and >>>
Knuten
- Date:
- 22.04.2013
- Characteristic:
- Walk
- Duration:
- 0:30h
Took a quick trip up to Knuten in the evening after arriving in Mefjordvær. Had some light rain while eating dinner but then the weather changed quickly and we took the opportunity to strecth the legs after the relatively long car journey.
Being the first evening of my visit to Senja with my mum and brother, I don't think we could have asked for a better welcome!
Vanntinden
- Date:
- 12.04.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
- Distance:
- 13.0km
Jeg glemmer nå hvorfor jeg foreslo en tur til Vannøya. Husker at jeg merket denne øya først da jeg åpnet mitt nye Ullsfjorden kart. Kanskje det var det første partiet som jeg så. Men uansett, en tur til Vanntinden så fristende ut spesielt siden helning fra sørsiden av fjellet var ganske slak hele veien opp. Det betydde også at total avstanden var lengre enn noen andre turer. Da ble planen for et besøk til Vannøya født. Det skulle blitt bare en dagstur med ferga, men min vennine Ilona hadde en flott ide: sov i telt på Vannøya etter turen og opplev en vakker solnedgang fra stranda.
Naturlig ble vi veldig spent veldig fort. Jeg spurte noen andre venner om de hadde lyst til å bli med, og snart var vi ei 4-personer gruppe: jeg, Ilona, Kamila og Kristin. Dessverre måtte Aline til >>>
Skadet på Sydalsfjellet
- Date:
- 23.03.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
- Distance:
- 7.0km
After having had a short trip on our first day in Lofoten, Aline and I were super-enthusiastic to have a longer ski trip. Sydalsfjellet turned out to be the only ‘full’ topptur option, since the other trips which were being run on the Saturday were either skogskjøring or ski/surf combination. Fortunately both of us managed to get a place on the Sydalsfjellet trip before the sign-up list had filled up. Unfortunately the weather didn’t look all that promising in the beginning of the day when we met up with our guides Marius and Bjørn at 9am at the Henningsvær Bryggehotell. Altogether there were 13 participants on the trip, so it was a relatively large group. Null visibility and light snow was not at all inspirational, but we clambered on board the minibus anyway with a dash of hope that >>>
Stampen
- Date:
- 22.03.2013
- Characteristic:
- Backcountry skiing
My first trip of Camp Lofoten with Aline and Siv. We'd expected to be taking a trip to Sautinden, but as things happened we ended up on Stampen instead. The meet-up with the ret of our group and the guides was at 9.00 by the Henningsvær Bryggehotell and the drive to the starting point for the ascent was a scenic 40-minute drive down the E10. And we couldn't have asked for a better welcome with the blue skies and sunshine we got, even if the forecast did hint that it wouldn't be staying like this for very long! The group was around 9 or 10 including our guide Sverre, and we used the first hour or so using the avalanche transceivers in search mode. For us and perhaps one or two others in the group, the practice wasn't new but served as good revision on what we had already learnt on the skredkurs >>>
Breitinden (Ringvassøya)
- Date:
- 20.03.2013
- Characteristic:
- Randonnée/Telemark
- Distance:
- 14.0km
I dag ble det en jentetur til Breitinden på Ringvassøya med både Kristin og Aline. Det var flott å ha Aline med på tur igjen, spesielt fordi det hadde blitt nesten to måneder siden vår siste tur sammen. Strålende sol, lite vind og et nytt fjell som turmål gjorde at vi følte oss veldig spent på å komme oss ut på tur så fort som mulig. Heldigvis var reisen til utgangspunktet ved Simavika bare en halv time bilkjøring fra Tromsø. Dro relativt tidlig fra Tromsø omtrent kl.9.30, så var det kl.10.15 da vi begynte turen.
Vi visste at turen skulle bli enkel med en jevn, slak stigning nesten hele ruten oppover. Vi valgte å bruke veien som gikk inn i Ytredalen og det var et par kilometer før vi tok av til høyre (sør) siden av dalen og begynte å få spist noen høydemetre gjennom >>>
