Hjortland to Lønborg

Dato:
10.03.2018
Turtype:
Fjellskitur
Turlengde:
7:12t
Distanse:
22,6km

I was dropped off at the parking lot at Hjortland and from there followed the snow-covered gravel road towards Norhytten (one can also arrive by bus to Flaktveitrinden, but then one has to carry the skis for about 2 km). The trip soon turned into backcountry skiing with only one or two tracks to follow made by earlier skiers. As I got close to Norhytten these tracks also more or less disappeared, and so did the sun, plus it started snowing lightly, resulting in poor visibility. Still straightforward to reach Norhytten, but from there onwards to Borga it was a bit more complicated, and I had to reduce the speed to ensure that I was on the right course. Not the best views from the summit of Borga today. The visibility improved slightly for the descent, but for safety I still followed my own tracks. I continued to Vikinghytten , via Grønetua .

Rundemanen and Kvitebjørnen

Dato:
06.03.2018
Turtype:
Fjellskitur
Turlengde:
4:09t
Distanse:
15,7km

Started from the upper station of Fløibanen and after a quick detour to Skomakerdiket I took the shortest route to Brushytten , from where I followed Blåmansveien to arrive at Rundemanen . I continued northwest across Kvitebjørnen all the way to Dræggehytten , before turning southeast to Ankerhytten . Here I tried skiing down the shortcut to Munkebotsvatnet, but ended up having to walk the last bit due to too many trees and not enough snow. The trip was completed by putting on the skis again and following Hellemyrstien back to Lønborg. A very nice trip in perfect winter weather: blue skies and close to no wind. And in areas where there is usually not enough snow for skiing. There could have been just a little bit more snow at times though, as then one would not have to constantly be on the lookout for rocks...

Fløyen, Brushytten and Sandviksfjellet

Dato:
04.03.2018
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:33t
Distanse:
15,6km

My plan had been to take Fløibanen and start skiing from the upper station, but upon arriving at Fløibanen there was a bit of a queue, so I decided to walk instead. At the upper station I put on my skis and made one round in "Lysløypen" before heading north for Sandviksfjellet . Getting to the summit of Sandviksfjellet on skis turned out to be harder than expected, as the path is not really made for skiing. The stretch from the summit towards to Sandvikspilen was however slightly better. From Sandvikspilen I tried a shortcut through the woods to reconnect with the gravel road. This turned out to be a mistake (too many trees and not enough snow), so not really a shortcut in the end. Finally, the trip was concluded by skiing down the snow-covered gravel road and taking Hellemyrstien to Lønborg.
