A suprising terningkast 6! After getting rained out during an early climbing session at Sleppen klatrefelt, we decided to give Hansbakkfjellet a try as the weather looked more promising in the afternoon. We drove to hestbakken and parked by the side of a white house. We continued walking up the private road, to another property and a small, weak path led off to the right. The trail soon turned surprisingly into a drømmesti and we gained elevation steadily and slowly. It looks like one of the locals enjoys words of encouragement on his hikes, and we found lots of thoughtful quotes printed out and pinned to the trees :)

Once we had come out of the treeline and had the pass in sight, the trail disappeared and we headed up a steeper section of grass until we came to the pass around 500moh. We continued on for another 100moh before we left our poles and started scrambling. We gained around 300m total through scrambling and here we just tried to pick the best path through the rocks. Soon we came to the top of Eidislitinden, where we traversed down and then up the last ridge of Hansbakkfjellet.

The views in all directions were incredible, we enjoyed the sunshine at the top while paal had a field day with his drone, then headed slowly back down. Takk for turen uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund)!
