Svartetjørnfjellet from Storevatnet

Date:
11.12.2021
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
4:12h
Distance:
9.1km

Most of the earlier trip reports for Svartetjørnfjellet also include Lauvtonipa and start from Bjørnekletten southeast of the summit. However, arntfla (Arnt Flatmo) 's external trip report presented an alternative route which instead ascended Svartetjørnfjellet via the ridge from the northeast. This would both reduce the distance I would have to walk along the road and was also more compatible with the buses I had in mind for this Saturday. I therefore started by taking the bus to Storevatnet and got off at the bus stop called "Nedre Storavatn". After crossing under the main road, I followed the smaller road north/northeast along Storevatnet to where Arnt had indicated that the trail was starting, or at least had started almost 20 years ago. That I would be able to spot any traces of this trail was perhaps too optimistic though. I had even hoped that >>>

Five small hills north of Myrdalsvatnet

Date:
05.12.2021
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:36h
Distance:
12.3km

A return to Myrdalsvatnet for a visit of the five remaining small hills to the north. Nice views from Limesbrotet and Kattuglehaugane / Barkahaugane , which could all be reached fairly easily. Kattuglefjellet and Fjellet on the other hand had limited views and lots of vegetation to fight with. It was probably a good choice to visit all of these summits in the winter time. I also passed by the remains of Johnsahytta and made a short detour to Myrdal Våpenlager . Overall, not the most exiting hike but still ok. Pretty sure these will be my only visits to all of the summits involved though.
