Gloføken

Yes, it lives up to its name, the mountain Gloføken/1357m, as the sunset intensively glows on the sky.
The name is kinda difficult to translate, but it means something like "The mountain that flies with embers"...
Dunno the origin of the name, but could it stem from the time when the alert of war was signaled with big fires on the mountain tops, visible from one top to the next..?
