Grenlandsekspressen, 7a+
Very sustained, mentally demanding climbing on slabs and vertical walls. Well protected but not soft for the grade. A real test piece for seasoned Hægefjell climbers. Pitch 1 (60–70m, 7a+) starts up a corner crack (same as Reise zum Mond), steep crimpy wall to bolt, thin traverse right and up, finish on gear. Pitch 2 (50m, 6b+) climbs an easy leaning dihedral to a ledge, then traverses right with an added bolt. Pitch 3 (20m, 7a) takes on a slick reverse C-feature, crux from start to finish. Pitch 4 (30m, 6b+) traverses rightward on a quartz band, harder at the end. Pitch 5 (60–70m, 6c) climbs up to a bolt, cuts right from the dihedral, then bolts guide you up to a shallow bowl. Pitch 6 (40m, 5-) offers easy climbing up right then left on a ramp. Pitch 7 (60m, 6b) goes straight up past bolts, traverses left on a ledge, then straight up. Belay at a single bolt or Heroes belay. Pitch 8 (50m, 3+) is an easy scramble to the top.

Red point
7b
Made the first ascent together with Birkeland and Høgli. Not team free. We took two falls on the route. All moves was climbed free eventually. A few more bolts have been added since this to make it safer. Really sustained climbing with most pithes above 6b.
