When I was in Gudvangen, I noticed one problem. My shoes, the four-year-old Aku Tribute II, had a completely worn sole in the heel area, and in some places this sole was delaminated. It wasn\u2019t looking good and I was afraid that the best days of my shoes were over. I was going to start my vacation in Poland soon and I wanted to organize one more trip to the mountains before leaving. I was hoping I wouldn\u2019t have to walk barefoot.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

In such a case, I did not want to operate my shoes too much, as they could fall apart at any moment. It was supposed to be a rather light hike. However, ambition prevailed and I chose Oksen, for which I had been sharpening my teeth (in this case, probably my legs) for several years. The action was to be carried out next weekend. Unfortunately, in the week before the expedition, the weather forecast was not the best and everything indicated that I would be forced to give up the mountains at this time.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I developed an emergency plan, and so the idea of climbing to \u00c5ksla (693m above sea level) was born. This is a mountain I had been on in the past. Due to the normal working day during the week, the plan was to be carried out after 3 p.m. Finally I invited an old friend for this trip, so this time I supposed to have a company.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
