But delayed or not, we didn't want to be cheated of making a mountain climb together, even if it wasn't on the proper day itself. And as a suitable alternative to Kåtotjåkka, I had put my eyes on Kiellastjåkka, with an altitude of 1803 metres the highest peak in the Abisko mountains. We had made our camp on a wide plateau in the southern mouth of the Siellavagge valley, and already from the start of our ascent we had a very good view to the Hånka mountain and further behind through the valley from which we had come. |
