Melåaksla
965 metres of ascent over 5.99 km from Melå to Melåaksla — a summit that took three candidates to find: the register's name stands on the 747 shoulder in the north, the first seed landed on the 959.6 top to the south-east, and the published 915 is the top at 915.7 midway between them. The tractor road on the south side of the river to Dalbotnen, past the hut and the long ridge south. A descent of 15–25 degrees with some sections of 30 — splendid varied ground, says the source. Grade 2.
Elevation profile
965 metres of ascent over 5.99 km from Melå: the tractor road to Dalbotnen, past the hut towards the 505 knoll — and the long ridge south to the cairn at 916, west of the tarn at 717.
From the lay-bys at Melå — 11 m; the tractor road runs on the south side of Melåelva, opposite to the Tverrfjellet tour's north side — and steep through the forest first: the band from 100 to 200 is the line's steepest on average at 23.7 degrees. The treeline sits at 355 after 2.58 km.
