After initially failing to find any free parking spaces at Gullbotn (on either side of the main road), we ended up parking next to the road only a couple hundred meters to the south where there was room for maybe a dozen cars. We then returned on foot to Gullbotn and from there followed the skiing trail west. In order to stay in the sun, we ditched the option of ascending to Kråfjellet and rather headed north to Trengereidhotten , enjoying excellent skiing conditions and next to no wind. The wind however picked up a bit at the summit and we therefore did not stay long before starting our descent and rather taking our short lunch break about halfway back down to Gullbotn. To shorten the walk along the main road we did not return to the main parking lot, but instead passed by Kløverhytten on our way back to the car. Overall, an excellent >>>

Skiing across Vidden

Characteristic:
Backcountry skiing
Duration:

Distance:
23.8km

A repeat of my earlier skiing trip across Vidden from Montana, but this time with a (for me) new winter ascent route which basically consisted of carrying the skis along the hiking trail until almost reaching Vassdalsvatnet. From there I connected with the normal route across Vidden before taking a quick detour to the highest point at Byfjellene . Generally there were almost as many hikers as skiers. I therefore tried to stay away from the main trail as much as possible in order to achieve the best skiing conditions. The skis stayed on all the way until getting to the start of Hellemyrstien, where I figured it was as quick to carry the skis the rest of the way.
