This is the view from the highest hut called "Fannaraken". It's clouded in almost all of the time and it looks like Mordor. It consists of 4 wooden buildings without electricity or running water and all supplies have to be heliocoptered in.
I set off a smoke alarm trying to dry some clothes by the propane heater because it rained all day while we were climbing up there and everything we had was soaking wet, people ran around and freaked out and I was very popular the rest of the night.
For the rest of the trip if we mentioned we went here we got royal treatment from all Norwegians. So if you ever go to Norway just tell people casually you stayed at Fannaraken and watch them fall all over themselves .
