Comments:
I was on my way to Lillehammer (due there the next morning), after a very nice visit with my friend Jostein and a superb ascent of Storsomrungsnebba the day before. My plan was to visit 2 summits on my way to Lillehammer this Monday.
Brattfonnhøa was my first target after leaving Oppdal, early this Monday morning. I parked my car around 0830, the day looked very nice. The walk was easy, I crossed the only (small) river shortly after leaving the car in a place with stepping stones.
I arrived on top after roughly 2:10. Good views. The return hike was even easier, a gentle downhill still improves a bit on walking speed. Back at my car around 12 - noon.
My next target was Flenskampan this peak was not exactly next door. Some food shopping as well as charging my (electric) car was also needed.
