Given the near perfect weather, I took one day of "vinterferie" to go skiing. I convinced my dad to join and together we drove to Modalen and Øvre Helland. Here we left the paved road and continued along a good-quality gravel road up to Steinavatnet p-plass. After a very short climb of only a couple of meters, and less than 150 meters of skiing, we arrived at the ice-covered Steinavatnet, which provided very easy access to Olav Nygards bu.

We then turned west and headed for the ridge to Nåmdalsfjellet. Lots of traces of earlier skiers, however there did not seem to be a fixed summit route. The direction was in any case obvious and there were no steep areas to avoid. It therefore did not take long before we arrived at the summit where we could enjoy the views to the surrounding mountains.

After spending the whole trip in the warm sun, and with next to no wind, the cold breeze at the summit made us cut our visit short and we soon started our descent along more or less the same route as for the ascent, only taking a minor detour for a short lunch break. The snow conditions were variable, but overall pretty good.

In summary, an excellent short skiing trip that can be very highly recommended!
