Kambafjellet and Blåfjellet

Started by taking the ski lift from Rindabotn and from the top followed the tracks of previous skiers across Kambafjellet towards Blåfjellet. Upon reaching the large cairn at Blåfjellet I continued east towards the real slightly taller summit. No tracks to follow here. After removing the climbing skins I made my own way down to the Red Cross cabin (called Britabu) located right next to Britastein, before following the standard skiing trail back down to Rindabotn. Overall an excellent trip that can be highly recommended!
