Just normal weather. What happened last weekend?


After the prolonged high pressure system over the mountains, the normal weather is now coming, which means a lot of rain. During the week, it was mostly cloudy and rainy. Sometimes the street lights on the small path I can see from my window turned on in the morning and stayed on for the rest of the day. In addition to the rain, all the melting water from the mountains adds up, so the Norwegian weather website Yr (which means drizzle) warned of flooding in Bergen. With the change in weather, our mood also dropped a bit, but maybe it was also because the everyday routine had set in and the exciting new things were over. It rained on Saturday, so we didn't go for a little trip until Sunday. On Saturday, we had a study day, which means we did our assignments and homework. It often feels like we're actually on vacation and still have to do university work, which often leads to a conflict of conscience and lack of motivation for me. On Sunday, we walked towards Løvstakken. We wanted to go to the lake that I couldn't find alone back then, but then we decided to hike to the summit because it had already thawed so much that it looked free of snow and ice. It had also become quite warm where we were, so I took off many layers of clothing. We weren't sure if it really felt warm outside and still had our usual layers on. But on the way up, we got quite warm. Surprisingly, the forest looked very green due to the masses of moss. The further up we went, the stronger the breeze blew, and after the forest ended, we put our clothes back on. There was quite a bit going on at the top, but it spread out more than on Fløyen due to the different paths. At the top, we checked out the other nearby mountains and thought we could also walk on Damsgårdsfjellet next door. We had been up there very quickly. So we took the path heading west. Unfortunately, the sun hadn't melted all the snow on this side yet. So we had to walk through deep snowdrifts from time to time. In addition, most of the melting water decided to flow down on this side of the mountain. It was quite slippery and wet, and it took much longer for us to lose elevation. When we finally got lower, we decided against Damsgårdsfjellet and walked more towards civilization. The path we took led through a meadow that was more or less completely underwater. After Pia disappeared into the meadow with her shoes and I looked for a way around, we left the path and found a trail at the edge. We convinced ourselves that it really was a path, after all, we saw other footprints. But as the path descended, it unfortunately turned more and more into a stream, and we hopped from one clump of grass to another. My shoes had already paid off in the snow, but even more so in the water and mud. Of course, Pia also had suitable footwear, so neither of us got wet feet. We had a lot of fun looking for spots where we could walk somewhat normally. Whenever one of us sank deeper, we laughed a lot. Eventually, we reached a gravel path and left the water behind. We had come out at the level of the Gyldenpris neighborhood, which is opposite Mølenpris, where we were during our quarantine. We walked back along the slope of Løvstakken until Fantoft. It was already dark when we finally arrived. Our next goals are the remaining mountains, the seven local mountains of Bergen. We already have four in the bag: Fløyen, Ulriken, Rundemanen, and Løvstakken. We still need to conquer Damsgårdsfjellet, Lyderhorn, and Sandviksfjellet. The 7 Mountain Run always takes place in Bergen on the last weekend in May, where you hike all 7 mountains in one day. I find it a bit puzzling how an ordinary hiker is supposed to manage that, but the Norwegians run up and down the mountains faster. They constantly overtake Pia and me, and I don't feel like we're walking slowly. When I later looked at the map of where we had walked, I saw that we had actually walked between two paths in the stream.

Here you can find our route again:
