The beautiful colours of Autumn (Høst) 2

 








 


As they do in many places in the autumn, the trees were turning more and more yellow red and brown. In both the first two weekends of September weekends we spent one day climbing tops in the area. First we went up the Steinåsen. A cloud had creept up on us while we were walking to the top so it was a challenging trip with a little rain over a large swampy plain. When we finaly reached the top, the view was completely gone due to the fog. Only when the cloud broke for a second did we get to see the lakes below. The second trip a week later was up the Toskevassfjellet, again a fantastic trip, this time over smal steap forest paths.

By now (November) the daylight is almost gone and the first snow has presented itself (and melted again unfortunately). But winter is here!!!

The beautiful colours of Autumn (Høst) 1








A couple of warm days in autumn gave us the chance to go on a large tour up the Jonsheimtinden. Spectacular views and breath taking scenery. Leaving from Kongsvikdalen we walked up over stretching plateaus and never melting snow. Past wonderful water falls and steep cliffs of rock to be stunned by the all inspiring views at the top of the mountain on the sea below. On the way down we met an elg(moose) with two kalfs.
