Skiing trip organized by The Norwegian Trekking Association (DNT), or more specifically Voss Utferdslag, with bus transportation from Voss to the parking lot in Brandset and later back to Voss from Ospehaugen p-plass. We started out in excellent sunny weather that was bordering on too warm, but as we ascended towards Vardafjellet the wind started to pick up, so much that we had to delay the lunch break.

Initially we were going to pass just north of the summit of Vardafjellet, but after asking nicely, I was allowed to shortly leave the group for a short detour on my own to visit the summit. I quickly returned to the group and we descended to Prinsabotnskaret for a late lunch break in shelter of the strongest wind. Just as we got ready for the ascent to Bjørnafjellet, one of the participants lost her sit pad to the wind and we saw it tumbling over the ridge to the north and disappearing.

After a visit of the summit of Bjørnafjellet, we turned north to Reinstjørneskaret and the climb to Storanosi. And what did we come across just as we started descending into the valley? The sit pad we assumed we would never see again! It had simply taken a shortcut!

We soon arrived at the summit of Storanosi, where some of us made a short detour to enjoy the excellent views down to Oppheimsvatnet that could be obtained from just north of the summit. After returning to the large cairn, it was time for the long descent to Fyrjo and Ospahaugen. The skiing conditions were a bit variable at the start, but soon improved greatly and we shortly arrived at Fyrjo, from where we skied along the snow-covered road all the way to the parking lot where the bus was ready to take us back to Voss.

In summary, an excellent trip that can be very highly recommended!
