Kvasshovd

Short evening hike before spending the night at Haugastøl. All of the hike was along clear and easy-to-follow trails, although Kvasshovd itself was not indicated on any of the signs. The only trouble I had was missing my exit when heading east after visiting the summit, but the trail was quickly relocated. Much better views from the summit than expected, especially towards Hallingskarvet.
