[A view toward the
Hardangerjøkulen glacier, as seen from between Slirå and
Sandå.]

This photo shows the Hardangerjøkulen glacier, with Sandåvatnet in the foreground. To the right in the photo is the part of the glacier named Middalen in Norwegian. From the right, almost in the middle of the photo, one can see the mountain nordre Kongsnuten. You might see a glimpse of a cabin circa 250 meters below the peak of nordre Kongsnuten. That is an emergency shelter, named Appelsinhytta. It is on the skiing route, in wintertime, to and from Middalen. (Photo at 16:20:26, August 1 2006)
