Blåurskampen and Kampen

Short evening hike between the rain showers with the main objective of visiting Kampen, a recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list. On my way there I also passed by Blåurskampen which could potentially also be added to the list, but with only deer tracks to follow and very limited views from the summit I decided to not add it as its own PB-element. Kampen could be easily ascended from the east, and I probably should have descended that way as well, but instead decided on a shortcut northeast along the ridge. A bit steep towards the end but no real challenges. Not sure if I saved much time compared to the easier route back east though.
