Traverse Moltinden to Stortinden

We left shortly after 7 from Ballstadøya. Met up with Martin and Jonas in Ramberg. Then we placed one car at the old "Electric Blue Café". We sorted out the last gear details and went up. Andreas and Jonas is one team and I am climbing with Martin. Feeling really safe in the company of a doctor and a nurse! There was a strong wind when we started going upwards but it subsided later on. It took us 8 and a half hour before coming down again at the deserted "Electric Blue Café". After coming down we went to Friisgarden café in Ramberg for a coffee before we went home. I met my new neighbour when I came back to Hattvika standing there with my axes in one hand and she invited me to a 30 year birthday party! That was really nice but I had to decline since I invited Andreas for a sharpening-axes-and-crampons-nite with simple dinner and to watch the movie Cold Haul. We didn't have time for the movie because suddenly it was midnight...so we have to postpone that. I've already seen it several times though but not Andreas. Because tomorrow we are going climbing so we can't be up all nite!

Seen from Napp. The highest peak.

Going up from Ramberg.
