Afternoon involves a misty walk by Mjøsa before retreating to the warmth of the Glassworks. We end the day perfectly dry inside the Olympic Cavern Hall, deep within the mountain rock.

A snow-blanketed Gjøvik Farm greets us in the morning chill. At noon, we crunch through snow to the church and enjoy the silence of the frozen lake. With the early sunset, we retreat to the warmth of the Glassworks by mid-afternoon. We spend the winter evening inside the rock cavern, where it stays warm regardless of the frost outside.
