Bjørnshiklanten from Stordalsstølen

Dato:
28.11.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:53t
Distanse:
9,3km

Another return to Masfjorden, and once again together with petter (Petter Bjørstad) . We drove early from Bergen and arrived at a relatively cold Stordalsstølen just as the first rays of sunlight hit the higher peaks to the east. At the last minute we had decided to bring our skis, but it quickly became clear that there was far from enough snow for skiing, and we instead set out on foot following the marked trail towards Kringla. (Note that the parking lot we used is most likely meant for the cabins in the area, but as there were no signs indicating that it was private, and there was only one other car present, we assumed that we would not be hindering anybody by parking there for a couple of hours.) While the trail was marked with red T's and overall easy to follow (at least at the start), significant parts of it >>>

Nonklettfjellet and Fjellet

Dato:
21.11.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:47t
Distanse:
13,0km

I started by taking the express bus to Haugsvær and getting off at the bus stop called "Haugsvær Auto". This put me right next to the gravel road that would take me up to the marked trailhead for Nonklettfjellet (or just Nonkletten as on the signs). The trail was marked with a combination of old faded red wooden markers and newer blue markers, that overall made it easy to follow the trail all the way to the summit. One has to pay attention though, as the faded red markers where not always easy to spot and the trail itself was not always super clear either. As an extra challenge, parts of the trail were today covered with a thin layer of ice. Thankfully these areas good be easily avoided, but it did result in a slightly slower pace than usual. As I was approaching the summit, the trail (and the >>>

Local hike on a wet and gray Saturday with the main goal of visiting an old stand for a mountain cannon that Kjell51 (Kjell Øijorden) had discovered on his hike a month earlier . See his report for more details on the cannon.

Roundtrip to the four summits north of Storavatnet

Dato:
13.11.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
7:37t
Distanse:
19,1km

Another hike with petter (Petter Bjørstad) , this time in the area north of Storavatnet in Masfjorden. Our goal was to make a roundtrip that included all of the four summits north of the lake. First up was Inste Kvitevasseggene . We parked next to the cabin Engleberget right beside the road at the southwestern end of Storavatnet and from there started our off-trail ascent. Shortly we however came across a trail marked by small cairns that we partly followed before again simply heading straight for the top. A bit of snow, but a lot less than what we had anticipated. Reaching the summit of Inste Kvitevasseggene requited a bit of scrambling at the end, but this can most likely be avoided by a short detour. From Inste Kvitevasseggene, our plan was to head directly north to Storhogen . The terrain here turned out to be slightly trickier than what we had >>>

Skarpefjellet and Torhaugen from Kjetland/Storemyr

Dato:
07.11.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:04t
Distanse:
12,4km

My first joint hike with long-time colleague and very experienced hiker Petter (see his external web page for an overview of his extensive hiking and climbing experience and lots of external hiking reports). Initially we had decided on a hike to Skarpefjellet and Blåfjellet , but upon closer inspection we both concluded that Blåfjellet only has a primary factor of maximum 99. The plans were therefore changed to first ascend Skarpefjellet and from there see whether we would also have the time to include Torhaugen instead. During the drive from Bergen it had rained quite heavily, but thankfully the rain more or less stopped as we arrived at Kjetland where we easily located a spot next to the road where we could park the car without hindering other vehicles (same as the one used by previous hikers). The fact that the rain had now almost ended would however not mean that we would >>>

Gravdalshorga from Gravdal

Dato:
31.10.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:57t
Distanse:
10,2km

I started by taking the bus from Bergen to Gravdal and got off at the bus stop called "Gravdal sør, Kvam". From there I pretty much followed in the footsteps of previous PB-hikers to Gravdalshorga , and could thus take advantage of their efforts at finding the best route. After passing the last houses at the end of Gravdalsvegen, I continued on a tractor road taking me to an unmarked trail following the river up to the unnamed cabin at the northeastern end of Sakresvatn. While the trailhead was unmarked, the trail itself was relatively easy to follow. As I arrived at the cabin, I however noticed that this was an unnecessary detour and that I should rather have stayed on the south side of the stream (see the return route). But after finding a place to cross the stream I was shortly back on track >>>
