For the first part of the ascent I was escorted by a squadron of buzzing flies, but thankfully they gave up their pursuit as I climbed above the tree line, partly due to a cool breeze from the southwest. On my way to Høgabu I had initially planned to ascend Gråfjellet from the northeast via Storaskaret as there is supposed to be a weak trail crossing the ridge of Gråfjellet. However, as I did not locate the start of this trail, >>>
