This is the second ascent to the North Cape. My picture is from a few kilometers earlier. The climb can be seen in the background. With a headwind and side gusts of approximately 40 km/h, it's best approached with caution, especially higher up. One picture shows me taking a break before the ascent, sheltered from the wind by a snowplow. The overall experience is unique and worth all the effort!

Day 43 / The North Cape. I was there in the late morning. As expected, there were crowds. But that was OK. In total, I spent over four hours on the plateau. Met lots of cyclists. Looked at everything.

A few thoughts on that. Why is it such a special place? There's nothing else here. Except food, souvenirs and mostly …
