From Gryllefjord school by waymarked route, up steep wooded then heath slope to lower end of summit ridge, which I followed, steepening and some scrambling, to summit. Amazing inversion conditions. Wish I had had the courage to go beyond the waymarks and turbok to neighbouring summit (Torsken) and complete circuit to Glæret. Returned to foot of ridge and made a
diversion to Glæret. Down path to Gryllefjord.

In 2022, we were beaten by Senja pa Langs as we battled down Tromdalen in floods and spates. There must be a better way. On 25/7/23 I went to find out. We booked in to DNT Senjabu.
From Senjabu, first went to visit the river crossing in Tromdalen that had been impossible the previous year. It was easy, and we had coffee sitting on stones in the middle. Then took to a steep untracked hillside through woodland and luxuriant vegetaion to Leirdalsheia. We split up here, Judith going directly to lake at 325m. I took E ridge to Trontind and descended by SW ridge to Leirskaret / Lairevaggi. It was clear this was readily accessible from Senja pa Langs. It would be a preferable alternative in poor weather. Descended to 325m lake and rejoined Judith. Returned to Senjabu via Daudmannsvatnet, three small >>>

Day 1. Approach climb to camp near Daven on moorland between next two days’ mountains.
Day 2. From Daven campsite by steep paths and rocky ridge, then boulderfield paths in coire (bolle-formasjon) to col between two peaks. Climbed to summit of Keipen then traversed easily to Gryttetippen. Descended by route similar to col approach back to campsite.
Day 3. From Daven campsite to ridge towards Barden, some slight scrambling to avoid steep section, all well-shown by paint marks. Ridge climb, avoiding steep peak. Plateau paths to Barden summit. Return by similar route. Picked up camp and descended to tunnel entrance.
