Storhaug via Trefallstølen
A return to Trefall in Eksingedalen with petter (Petter Bjørstad), this time to visit the final three summits Petter had left in Vaksdal. First up was Storhaug, a peak we had passed close by on two previous occasions but not had the time to ascend. We found parking next to the road just across the bridge from the marked trailhead and followed the steep marked trail up to Trefallstølen. Here we turned west and headed off-trail into the thickening fog in the direction of the summit. The large cairn was reached without any issues, although due to the fog we cannot comment much with regards to the views. We did however spot what appeared to be a slightly higher small hill just to the south of the cairn, and later checks via hoydedata.no indeed confirmed that this spot was a tiny bit higher. It was also marked by a metal trig bolt. Satisfied that we had visited the highest point, we returned along the same route back.
