Waked up today with surprisingly good weather. Better than forecasted so we decided to take a little trip on ski on a mountain nearby called Lille Haugfjell. In English it means something like little mound mountain. The area is quite bumpy with small valleys and ups and downs.
Yesterday we had snow again. In the lowland it melted during the day, but up in the mountain the snowfall maked perfect conditions for skiing with 10 cm powder on top of hard snow. Great! You probably have to live in the north to have powder snow in May. Further you have to like long winters, cold summers and a lot of shitweather to enjoy the possibility. I like it 😁.
We start skiing at around 400 meters and up to the peak 669 meters further up.
Upphils in sun and no wind, a quite seldom experience in this area.
The goal is in the sight.
View to Sweden and a great ski resort across the border.
At the highest point on the hike.
Sun and nice temperature, Nero enjoy chewing a bit of ice in the "heat".
We skied across, and took a roundtrip on the plateau. Here you can see there are lots of mounds of bumps in the mountain
Pictures with different views to the surroundings.
Skiing downhill from the mountain was pure joy with powder snow. In case I would take a crash landing, I had the camera in my backpack. Luckily both I and the camera survived, but no pictures from this part of the hike.
Best regards
Harald
