Vardebu, Ulvehylet and Fjellsol

For the first time in a long while the sun was shining. I therefore left work a bit early and headed for Ulriken, this time not taking the stone steps but rather the trail along Langrinden. Slightly more tricky than expected due to several icy areas, but I made it to the upper station of the cable car without any real difficulties. There I put on the snow chains and continued to Vardebu for some very nice pictures in the setting sun. Quick visits of Ulvehylet and Fjellsol were also made before starting the descent. Decided to stay away from the icy stone steps and instead followed the old path for the first stretch, making it to the gravel road just as it was starting to get dark.
