Skiing at Fløyen

The first skiing trip of 2019! Started from the upper station of Fløibanen and spent some time in "lysløypen" under excellent skiing conditions. I then turned on my head lamp and headed for Munkebotsvatnet, making it a bit below the smaller dam under Storevatnet, before deciding it would be safest to remove the skis and continue on foot. Probably a good decision as shortly after I spotted the first small rocks peeking out through the snow, and when getting closer to Munkebotsvatnet the snow was completely replaced by ice. I put the skis back on at Hellemyrstien though, but mainly due to being tired of carrying them, as the snow conditions there were far from optimal. But I did keep them on almost all the way to the top of Øyjordsveien without any major issues.
