Fastdalstinden
- Date:

- Duration:
- 5:30h
FSG had organised a rekrutteringstur this weekend in Nord Lenangen. Since I had managed to recruit with me both Johanna, Tim and Ellen who all are fairly new to the fjellsportgruppa I was 'allowed' a place on the trip also :-) After arriving at the rorbu on friday evening, we had a short discussion about which mountain we'd actually end up on and it looked more or less like it would be Fastdalstinden since there appeared to be very little snow on this side of the peninsula. Storgalten had more or less been ruled out because the majority of the group didn’t have skarejern or crampons.
Saturday morning started fairly early, and we were treated to a beautiful sunrise over the peaks to the south of the rorbuer. Beautiful sunrise soon gave way to crystal clear blue skies. Couldn't have been a better >>>
Tafeltinden med overnatting

Tur med fjellsportgruppa nok en gang og turen skulle bli min siste skitur denne sesongen. Når en tur kalles ‘Summit Camp’ er man kanskje garantert en annen type tur enn de vanlige FSG-dagsturene. Målet var å sove i telt enten på Strupbreen eller på toppen av Tafeltinden og bære så lite som mulig. Mindre enn 1/5 av kroppsvekt var en av de kriteriene. Faktisk ingen av oss klarte dette. Med knallvær som var meldt til helga var det ingen grunn for ikke å bli med på turen. Jan Fredrik og Vidar var turkoordinatorene, og til sammen ble vi 8 stykker. Kamila og jeg planla å dele telt og kokeutstyr og heldigvis var det så varmt at vi ikke hadde behov for en stor sovepose. Bare en liten sommerpose skulle fungere bra nok vi håpet.
Etter å ha kjørt sammen med Harald og Kamila til Breivikeidet >>>
Store Lenangstinden

Store Lenangstinden. I actually have to admit to not knowing a huge amount about the peak before our trip, apart from having read two reports on kugo’s website and having passed the mountain on a visit to Tafeltinden three weeks earlier. Nevertheless, I did know that it has a reputation for being a highly sought-after summit, so there was no question that any opportunity to ascend this peak must absolutely be taken up. That opportunity arose this weekend when Sondre Kvambekk and co. were on a visit up north. And after having rested my legs the day after our trip to Jiehkkevarri, the thought of another relatively long day in Lyngen was not so terrible. I woke up earlyish at around 5 am and left home in Tromsø at 6.30am, since we’d agreed to meet in Koppangen at around 9am and there were >>>
Jiehkkevarri og Holmbukttinden

For min del hender det ikke så ofte at jeg blir invitert til å være med på en Jiehkkevarritur av en kar som jeg ikke har møtt før. Da jeg nevnte til noen av mine turvenner at jeg skulle dra på en tur til det høyeste fjellet i Troms kommune, spurte de meg om hvem jeg ville gå denne turen med. Mitt svar? Um, sannheten er at jeg ikke kjenner de som jeg skal på tur med……men vi har hatt kontakt på nett og avtalt å gå på tur ilag….. noen venner syntes det var en morsom historie, andre var litt skeptisk til sånne ting. Og mest sannsynlig ville moren min advarer mot denne typen møte.
Derimot, når ‘random guy’ er Sondre 500fjell (Sondre Kvambekk) av Peakbook, kunne jeg føle meg sikker på at alt skulle gå stort sett greit, bortsett fra at hans fysisk form er kanskje en faktor ti bedre enn min og det >>>
Fastdalstinden

Da jeg våknet i Spåkenes denne fine søndagen var jeg fremdeles trøtt etter ikke å ha sovet så godt om natta. Men samtidig skjønte jeg at problemet kunne fikses veldig fort da jeg kom meg ut på tur. Etter litt diskusjon med Håvard og Kristine, bestemte vi oss for en tur til Fastdalstinden i Lyngen siden det var lett tilgjengelig fra Lyngseidet og ikke kjempebratt (eller det jeg håpet). De andre i gruppa ville dra på en tur til Storhaugen. Og så etter at vi sa takk for laget til hverandre, var vi endelig klare til å kjøre tilbake mot Olderdalen for å rekke ferga. Overraskende var det at vi traff Agnes og Trine som vi trodde skulle gå på tur til Storhaugen. Det skjedde at de ombestemte seg for å bli med oss til Fastdalstinden og så var vi plutselig ei 5-stykker gruppe. Hyggelig >>>
Tafeltinden
- Date:

- 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 >>>
Lille Piggtinden

- Hike
A very excellent day out. And my very first trip up a 'Lyngen Alp'. I have really only had one primary mountain 'goal' since moving to Tromso, and that is to climb at least one mountain in Lyngen, and this was the trip that fulfilled it, even though Lille Piggtinden is not really in the heart of the Lyngen peninsula. Anyway, I met up with two guys at ICA Langnes at kl.10 - Asbjorn, who I had met on previous trip and Reidar, who was a friend of Asbjorn's. Reidar drove us down towards the parking place in Lakselvdalen where we would begin the hike up. It was quite an impressive view of Lille Piggtinden from the entrance to the valley, and one which I wish I had got a photo of before before we started! I think it was more or less by the shores of Sørfjorden at it's western end where we parked >>>
