Skiing at Fløyen

With several reports indicating good skiing conditions at Fløyen it was finally time for my first skiing trip of 2020! I was unsure if I had made the right choice when it started raining when on the bus to Fløibanen though, but thankfully the rain turned to snow before Fløibanen reached its final destination. Decided to carry the skis up to just south of Regnhytten , and from there they stayed on until just below the small dam north of Storevatnet.

More or less an exact copy of my skiing trip from Fløyen to Lønborg earlier in the week, but with a slightly longer route through "lysløypen" before turning north for Lønborg. The skiing conditions for the floodlit track had not changed much, but there was now clearly more snow outside the track. So it should soon be possible to do some proper backcountry skiing. For the descent, I made it almost to Munkebotsvatnet before removing the skis, although it would probably have been fine to continue all the way to the lake. And like on Monday, I put the skis back in Hellemyrstien, but this time I could keep them on all the way to the top of Øyjordsveien.

The first skiing trip of 2019! Started from the upper station of Fløibanen and spent some time in "lysløypen" under excellent skiing conditions. I then turned on my head lamp and headed for Munkebotsvatnet, making it a bit below the smaller dam under Storevatnet, before deciding it would be safest to remove the skis and continue on foot. Probably a good decision as shortly after I spotted the first small rocks peeking out through the snow, and when getting closer to Munkebotsvatnet the snow was completely replaced by ice. I put the skis back on at Hellemyrstien though, but mainly due to being tired of carrying them, as the snow conditions there were far from optimal. But I did keep them on almost all the way to the top of Øyjordsveien without any major issues.

Skiing at Fløyen after work. Started in nice sunny weather but ended with wet snow from above. Lots of new snow from the night before, but most of it had melted during the day, so not the best conditions for skiing, but still an enjoyable trip.

Followed the standard skiing trail from Rindabotn around Fjærlandssetvatnet. The only detour was an attempt to reach Dyrhovden , which in the end had to be abandoned due to not having enough time to find a safe ascent to the summit.

My plan had been to take Fløibanen and start skiing from the upper station, but upon arriving at Fløibanen there was a bit of a queue, so I decided to walk instead. At the upper station I put on my skis and made one round in "Lysløypen" before heading north for Sandviksfjellet . Getting to the summit of Sandviksfjellet on skis turned out to be harder than expected, as the path is not really made for skiing. The stretch from the summit towards to Sandvikspilen was however slightly better. From Sandvikspilen I tried a shortcut through the woods to reconnect with the gravel road. This turned out to be a mistake (too many trees and not enough snow), so not really a shortcut in the end. Finally, the trip was concluded by skiing down the snow-covered gravel road and taking Hellemyrstien to Lønborg.

Short skiing trip with coworkers from the upper station of Fløibanen to Aasebu and back. Note that one my coworkers had never skied before, which should be kept in mind when looking at the time spent. ;)
