After driving down from Tromsø during the day, we decided on a late afternoon trip to Hatten. Årets første fottur! We parked at Tortenåsen and followed the tractor path for a few hundred meters that ended up being an excellent little path that we followed all the way to the top. There had been an avalanche here in the course of the winter, so we had to pick our way around quite a few broken trees. The path continued the whole way to the big silver ladder as an aid to come right to the top. The view was wonderful, all the way over to Lofoten in the west and mainland, including Stetind, in the east.

We enjoyed ourselves in the sun for a while and then started heading down. Had forgotten how much longer the trip down takes without skiis...Takk for en ordentlig kosetur uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund)
