Storefjell and Veslefjell from Øvre Guriset

Dato:
29.12.2023
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:11t
Distanse:
11,5km

The weather in the morning looked promising and we once again set out on a joint skiing trip. However, it did not take long before the gray conditions from the day before returned. And also today the grooming of the skiing tracks was suboptimal due to more new snow. At the crossroads northeast of Storefjell we therefore split up and I continued on my own to the summit. Limited views from the top due to the low-hanging clouds and I did not stay long before returning along the same route, with the exception of a minor detour to the highest point at Veslefjell .

Around Auenhaugen from Øvre Guriset

Dato:
28.12.2023
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
2:45t
Distanse:
10,7km

Short skiing trip while spending a couple of days at a cabin my sister and her family were renting at Golsfjellet. Due to lots of new snow during the night/early morning the ski tracks were not the best. Combined with gray weather we therefore settled for a roundtrip around Auenhaugen before returning to the cabin.

Skiing at Fløyen

Dato:
23.12.2023
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
2:52t
Distanse:
13,7km

The snow returned just in time for Christmas and combined with excellent weather this resulted in a very nice skiing trip starting from the top of Fløibanen. The skis stayed on all the way to Øyjorden with only the occasional rock sticking out of the snow for the last part of the descent down to Munkebotsvatnet.

Almost a year ago, I wrote that skiing at Fløyen in December is quite uncommon . However, I may have to take that back, as now, less than a year later, I was back skiing at Fløyen, and even earlier than last year. The conditions were reasonably good and except for the final descent down to Storediket (where I hit a couple of rocks sticking out of the snow) and the last part of the descent down to the start of the climb up to Storevatnet (where I most likely could have skied but did not risk it), the skis stayed on until reaching Smådiket (the small dam below Storevatnet). Here the gravel road started showing up underneath the snow and the skis had to be carried the rest of the way home to Lønborg.

Left work a bit earlier than usual to take advantage of the tail end of a beautiful sunny day to go skiing at Fløyen. The skis came on shortly after exiting Fløibanen and stayed on all the way to the top of Øyjorden (except for parts of Hellemyrstien where it was simply faster to carry them).

The first skiing trip of 2023! (Although not the first this winter .) Ok, but not great conditions. Even so, the skis came on just above the upper station of Fløibanen and stayed on until Smådiket (the small dam below Storevatnet), where the frequency of small rocks visible in the already rather thin layer of snow simply got too high. However, the skies were put back on between Munkebotsvatnet and the top of Øyjorden.

Skiing: Fløyen and Rundemanen

Dato:
18.12.2022
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:49t
Distanse:
17,1km

A second skiing trip at Fløyen, but this time taking Fløibanen and also including a visit of Rundemanen . Overall very good conditions for skiing and more new snow than expected. The skis stayed on until the top of Øyjorden, except for most of Hellemyrstien. However there was more ice than snow, and sometimes not a lot of that either, for the final stretch from Vannverkshuset i Skiveien to Munkebotsvatnet and from there to the start of Hellemyrstien.

Skiing at Fløyen in December!

Dato:
16.12.2022
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:23t
Distanse:
14,8km

Skiing at Fløyen in December is quite uncommon as there is usually not enough snow in Bergen at this time of the year (I had not recorded any such trips myself for the last six years). Given that the snow would most likely soon disappear, maybe already during the weekend, I decided to have a go after work on a Friday. The plan was to take Fløibanen from the city center, but I missed it by less than one minute and the next one was not until half an hour later. The trip therefore instead started by walking up to Fløyen with the skis coming on just below Skomakerdiket. Pretty good conditions for skiing overall and I more or less had the tracks to myself. Thanks to the recent new snow, some of it during the trip itself, I could even keep the skis on all the way to the top of Øyjorden.
