Tips

Igraine Ohnefurcht

July 17, 2025

The information panel explains how the lake got its name: Erik Husom (1817-1892), after whom this mountain lake was named, was a tenant farmer on the Kittilstadhusom farm. This farm is located in a low, sunny spot in the valley, where crops often withered and were destroyed due to severe drought. Therefore, Husom dug a ditch from the lake down to the farm.
This measure was unsuccessful, however, as there was insufficient water. The water evaporated and seeped away before reaching the farm.
