Trip Summary

After first paying Vågsøy and Måløy a short visit, we continued to Stadlandet. Our first stop was Vestkapp on Kjerringa in the northwest of Stadlandet. Taking the road up to a parking spot quite close to the actual top, we eventually entered some very thick (and wet) clouds that enshrouded all of the top. Even just a few meters from the massive meteorological radar station on top of Kjerringa we had some difficulties to actually find and see it! :-) Since our views were extremely limited anyway (and it was quite a bit wet, also!), we decided to not stay there for any significant time, but return to our car soon, instead, with our next goal, Stålet, in front of us! :-)
