F/LB5JJ or When in JN18du…
I asked my boy where he wanted to go for our autumn break, and was told we should go to Paris. No further explanation as to why was forthcoming, but I suspect it has something to do with the fact that Lionel Messi now plays for PSG. If you don’t know who Lionel Messi is,…

SOTA: LA/VF-015 Holtehedde
Was planning on activating Mistberget (LA/AH-006) today, but that would entail setting an alarm and getting up early. On a Sunday! Not really our favourite thing. So we settled on something a bit closer to home. There are several routes up, but we parked by Holtetjønn about a kilometre from Hvarnes in Lågendalen. Approximately 5km…

Ny helg, og ny fjelltopp. Det var egentlig meningen vi skulle tatt Gaustatoppen denne helgen, men det ble litt for liten tid til å planlegge det ordentlig. Så da valgte vi noe…

SOTA: LA/VF-002 – Vindfjell
Hver vår runde Corona og 14 dager siden forrige topp – så da ble det Vestfolds nest høyeste topp i dag. Vi fulgte ruten som var lagt ut som GPS-track på Sotlas; og selv om den var ganske kort gikk den gjennom relativt ulent terreng og på det som var mer dyretråkk en sti. Men…
