Cabin ruins: Søre Midtfjellet, Ranen and Øvre Jordalsvatnet
Yet another hike with the goal of searching for old cabins. This time starting from Torget and covering Søre Midtfjellet, Ranen and the area around Øvre Jordalsvatnet. Most of the cabins where easy to locate, the exception being Kveldsol where there were only limited traces left. New PB-elements added: Fredheim, Kveldsol, Brannmannshytten, Fjellstuen, Redningshytten, Fram and Høgelien. Plus Granbakketårnet and Bergensbakken.
For an excellent picture from when all of the cabins from Heimtun to Fjellhytten were still standing, check out From Fløyen 1918-04-20. Do remember to zoom! Here is one with only Heimtun, Fredheim and Kveldsol: From Fløyfjellet between 1925 and 1927. And finally, here is one showing Granbakken: From Midtfjellet toward Skomakerdiket between 1950 and 1959, and one showing Bergensbakken: Bergensbakken between 1920 and 1939 with Redningshytten in the lower right-hand corner.
