Storefjell and Veslefjell from Øvre Guriset

The weather in the morning looked promising and we once again set out on a joint skiing trip. However, it did not take long before the gray conditions from the day before returned. And also today the grooming of the skiing tracks was suboptimal due to more new snow. At the crossroads northeast of Storefjell we therefore split up and I continued on my own to the summit. Limited views from the top due to the low-hanging clouds and I did not stay long before returning along the same route, with the exception of a minor detour to the highest point at Veslefjell.
