Multipitch climbing at Nissedal

Jörgen and I had spoken about going to Nissedal to do our first longer multipitch climbs, and in July it was time. It can rain a lot in
Norway but we had a lot of sun. A bit too much for our taste. It was close to 30 degrees C and we ran out of water rather quickly.
In our two days we did Via Lara (4), many people's first traditional multipitch climb, and Sternschnuppe (5+). Both very nice climbs.

I've done it now. Fantastic route.	Hägar 7-. A striking line. A future project if I ever get comfortable leading grade 7 trad climbs.
