Something about strange stones?

view from Flatbrehytta

.

It looks small but inside is a full kitchen with two big tables and a back room with bunk beds for 18 people! It runs on an honesty-based policy; you have to pay to stay there but there is no one monitoring the place

Break

Cabin buddies at the top!

Making our way back down
