A short backcountry skiing trip with Endre where we started from the parking lot outside Stordalen Fjellstove and from there followed a marked trail towards Rusta (and Gygrebotnen). At first we had to carry the skis but at just below 700 meters we put them on and kept them on until the summit area at Sør for Meinsperro. The skiing conditions can best be described as highly variable but also with several quite nice sections.

We had initially considered continuing to Årsdalsryggen via Fjellvassbu but quickly concluded that this would take too long under the current conditions. After a couple of pictures we therefore returned more or less the same way but managed to keep the skis on for a bit longer than the point where we put them on during the ascent. Towards the end we also followed a wrong set of footprints but still easily found our way back to the parking lot.

To conclude, a nice short skiing trip that would have benefitted from a bit more snow.
