Skiing at Fløyen
Yet another skiing trip at Fløyen, but this time starting by taking Fløibanen to avoid the icy ascent roads. Very few people at Fløibanen, maybe just over ten in total. Which was a bit strange given the close to perfect skiing conditions in "lysløypen"! The descent in the direction of Munkebotsvatnet was more challenging, with conditions varying from hard snow to packed ice. I still kept the skis on until close to the end of the steep descent below Vannverkshuset i Skiveien. Would probably have been possible to continue further, but walking was almost as fast and much safer. The snow chains did however not come on until getting to the start of Hellemyrstien (and was perhaps not even needed there either).
