Storetunga and Vetle Hansbunuten from Finse
On yet another very warm day, I decided to escape some of the heat by heading up to Finse to visit two relatively recent additions to the Hordaland ≥ 100m pf. list, both of which had been upgraded due to more accurate LiDAR data more accurate data. First up was Storetunga. After getting off the train at Finse, I headed southeast along Rallarvegen before later leaving the gravel road and heading off-trail towards the summit. Besides some enjoying undergrowth early on, the terrain was generally easy to travers and the summit was reached without any difficulties.
After a break next to the summit cairn to take in the excellent views, I returned along the same route to Rallarvegen before crossing the river along a small bridge underneath the larger railroad bridge and starting my ascent of Vetle Hansbunuten. There were a couple of small cairns in the area around the bridge but I quickly lost these and instead simply found my own way towards the summit, which once more provided excellent views.
During my ascent I had realized that I might be able to catch the earliest of the two trains I had planned for and had thus increased my speed. The speed was further increased on my way back to Finse, helped by connecting with the marked trail halfway there. Being on the trail also ensured easy crossing of a couple of rivers that would otherwise have been very difficult. In the end I made it to the station with around ten minutes to spare. Going for the early train turned out to be a very good choice, as the next train would be almost two hours delayed...

I just missed first ascent :-)
Geschrieben von Erling 20.07.2025 21:36And I thought I got the peakbook first ascent of Storetunga since on the way down I met Joso on the way up Storetunga. But you beat me to it three hours. Funny that three people independently of each other were on this peak on the same day, but the weather was impeccably good. As for you, part of the motivation was to escape the heat in the city.

Geschrieben von hbar 21.07.2025 09:39Aha, I did not know that I was taking part in a race for the first ascent! Too bad that we did not all arrive at the summit at the same time! :)
