Another day of blue skies! Met Trond Olav in Tromsø and drove out to Løvdal together. From here we parked the car and followed a small trail into the right hand side of Løvdalelva. The small trodden path follows the valley in along the lake on quite a long approach and eventually comes up to a pass around 300moh where you get great views of Blåskredtinden. From here the trail disappears and we lost around 100moh as we headed down towards the small lake. After a small, loose boulder field we started gaining elevation steeply through heavy, vegetated terrain and ended up pushing our way steeply through bushes until the terrain got more rocky. We followed a stone gully to the right before heading over to where we would start our one ropelength of climbing. Great quality rock and a nice pitch. After a lunch break, we started the slow journey back down the steep slope and in the valley. Takk for turen Trond Olav og Paal :) Flottere bilder kan sees hos uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund) :)
