Description

Tour to Jiehkkevarri via Holmbukktind on the way up and Blåisen on the way down.

Be sure to start early enough to avoid avalanches from the SW side of Holmbukktind on the way up (400-800m).

The last section up to Holmbukktind is exposed, so consider crampons.

The route down crosses the Blåisen glacier, including a steeper section next to an ice fall, so consider rope and glacier kit.
