" Club Hut ” is most conveniently made in this way. From 
here the path leads to the Svartdal, with another fine glacier, 
and the Thorfindel to Nybod on Lake Bygdin. Again by 
motor boat the traveller can proceed to Eidsbrigaren and 
so to Tyinholmen on Lake Tyin. From Trindehang, which 
adjoins, the ascent of the Skinegg mountain for the fine 
panoramic view is strongly recommended, but the finest 
walk of the tour lies before the pedestrian in crossing the 
glaciers of the Uranaastind, ascending this commanding 
peak and descending to Skogadolsboen. The top of the tind 
is an eerie place consisting of a narrow ridge with a drop 
on either side of some 3 — 4,000 feet into the valleys below. 
At Skogadolsboen, the very heart of the climbing district, 
the Norwegian Touist Club maintains an excellent hut. The 
interior view shown by the lecturer, depicting an aged guide, 
seated by the prmitive corner fireplace with the implements 
of his craft near at hand, was specially selected for favour- 
able comment. From Skogadolsboen the return was made 
to Tyin Lake through the wild and little visited Uradal 
—a valley which for a long time was blocked by the gigantic 
debris of a shattered mountain side — called locally “ Ure.” 
The walker has a toilsome straggle for hours across this remark- 
able catastrophe of nature. 
The journey down Tyin Lake can now be accomplished 
by motor boat, and the journey homewards commenced on 
reaching the great trunk road connecting Christiania and 
Laerdal by proceeding in either direction. The lecturer came 
out of the country by Nystuen, Maristuen, Borgund, Laerdal, 
Gudvangen, and Vossevangen, and thence by railway to 
Bergen. It is worthy of note that the first week of September 
is not too late for Norway, and on the high plateau the 
autumn tints will amply compensate for the shorter days. 
The lecturer arrived back in England on the 1 8th of September.
