Vossavardane, Hotten and Nordnuken

A return to Tjørndalen to visit a couple of minor not previously visited peaks and to see if there were any cloudberries to be found. The former went all according to plan, but the latter was not a big success as we found maybe ten berries in total. There were lots of blueberries though. On the way back to the car I also made a minor detour on my own to the summit of Nordnuken where I managed to find a route that was much better than expected.
