Comments:

I started from Tuvefjellet shortly after 1100. I was doing a loop hike with 2 summits after leaving my wife at Malkenes where she would be hiking, looking for "stolper", an easy variation of orienteering.
I arrived at the summit around 1150, about 45 minutes after leaving Tuvefjellet. Nice views to Hovlandsnuten. I left shortly before 1200, and was back by my car at 1230. After picking up Heidi, we next travelled toVetlefjell.
