Skjellesvikgalten
1019 metres of ascent over 4.11 km from Skjellesvika to Skjellesvikgalten — a mountain the source and the register measure differently: Fri Flyt writes 800 m, but the register's Skjellesvikgalten, with Storgalten as a secondary name, is the 987 summit, and DTM1 agrees to the decimetre. No separate 800 top exists on the east ridge — only a shoulder. The card carries the register height. KAST 3 – Complex with ice axe and crampons. Grade 4.
Elevation profile
1019 metres of ascent over 4.11 km from Skjellesvika: the tractor road from the harbour, the broad, gentle east ridge — and the cairn at 987, the summit the source calls 800 and the register measures higher.
From the lay-by on the fv. 8670 Grytøyveien at the Skjellesvika boat harbour — 6 m — follow the tractor road west from the harbour: 33 m where the line stands in it, and the treeline at 298 after 1.53 km.
