Tverrfjellet

7,7km

After our visit of Skorpo , we wanted to have a go at one more peak before heading back to Bergen and decided on Tverrfjellet in Omvikdalen. (To be more precise, we decided on the lower peak with that name on the eastern side of Omvikdalen, as there is also a higher peak with the same name on the other side. Not a lot of points for creativity when naming mountains in this area in other words...) We parked at a small parking lot at the trailhead and from there followed a gravel road up to Aterstadvatnet. Here we had to cross the river to continue on the marked trail to the summit. There were several steppingstones that made the crossing straightforward, however avoiding wet shoes was not really an option. Kjell here decided to turn back and returned to his car, while Petter and I started on the initially relatively steep ascent >>>

Shortly after our successful ascent of Storhaugen på Seløy , Kjell managed to secure yet another boat ride, this time to from Stølavika to the island of Skorpo . Once more both Petter and Endre were eager to join, but in the end Endre decided to instead use the one to retrieve his car in Ortnevik (left there after his impressive skiing trip to Voss ). Petter picked me up at 07:00 for the drive to Gjermundshamn and the ferry to Årsnes. We met up with Kjell on the ferry and drove together from Årsnes to the agreed upon pickup point in Stølavika, where only minutes later the boat showed up and transported us to Søre Skorpevågen at Skorpo. A short trip taking less than ten minutes. From Søre Skorpevågen we did as recommend by the boat owner and followed a gravel road west until reaching a tractor road, and later trail, marked with red T's, which we then proceeded to follow up to the cairn at the hill east >>>

Local Sunday hike to check out the refurbished trail in Skredderdalen (now with lots of new stone steps, still lots of work left for the lower part of the trail though). On the way home I also took advantage of the reduced water level of Storevatnet for a visit of an unnamed ruin northeast of the lake .

For the second weekend in a row, Petter and I returned to Jondal to go skiing. This time the plan was to drive up to FONNA Glacier Ski Resort and start our trip from there. However, due to the final part of the road up to ski resort still being covered by snow, we did not take any chances with our summer tires and instead parked at Hestadalen p-plass . The skis came on immediately after leaving the parking lot and we made good progress up to the unnamed 1084 lake east of Svartaberget. From there we ascended steeply up Svartavassberget before the terrain levelled off as we approached the summit of Steinafjell , which we reached without any issues after roughly 1.5 hours of skiing. From Steinafjell we wanted to make an attempt at finding a safe route to NV av Juklavatnet . Both of us had in advance arrived at pretty much the same suggested route. The question was whether >>>

When a two-day meeting at Solstrand came to an end, I made the rather unusual choice of skipping the concluding lunch at the hotel and instead changed into my hiking gear and hopped on a bus to Sævareid with the goal of visiting the final two peaks I had left in Bjørnafjorden. After switching buses at Kilen I got off at "Sævareid sør". This put me right at the start of Markhusvegen and I now had just under 2.5 hours to complete my hike and return to the bus stop before the last bus of the day would take me back to Bergen. I started by following Markhusvegen up towards Markhus but left the gravel road just as it flattened out and instead headed off-trail towards the summit of Steinen , leaving my heavy backpack behind at the first opportunity. The ascent started quite steep and even required some >>>

Petter picked me up at my place at 06:20 for our drive to Tørvikbygd and the first ferry to Jondal. After the short ferry crossing we continued northeast to Herand and Åsleitet where we planned to follow a gravel road up to the parking lot at Vårhaug. We had however not driven many meters on the Grimevegen toll road before we arrived at a locked gate where a local farmer in a tractor told us that the road was closed during the winter. We therefore had no choice but to return to the start of the gravel road and park there. But just as we were beginning to dread having to carry the skis up the steep extra vertical meters, the farmer returned and asked if we wanted a lift! We of course quickly said yes and hurriedly got ready, placed our gear and ourselves at the back of the tractor and off we went, trying to hold on >>>
