Kubrekka from Nedre Sandven
When my initial plan to ski across Vidden was cancelled after seeing a picture of how little snow was left at Rundemanen, I instead went for yet another minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list, namely Kubrekka. I started from the bus stop at Nedre Sandven and from there followed the snow-covered gravel road north until being less than 200 meters from the summit. I then put on the gaiters and headed off-trail towards the summit in knee-deep snow. As I got closer to the summit the deep snow was replaced by a dense forest of spruce trees with tons of dry branches trying to block the way. The summit itself had no views and is generally of no interest to normal hikers. I returned the same way and then took the bus back home from Øvre Sandven.
