Kristen Dale from Bygland was a very active collector and visited localities throughout Norway. He discovered several new occurrences. In his map collection he marked several mineral localities, and we don't know what kind of localities they are or what minerals he found there. The relevant section of this map is published in Mindat in the hope that this information not will get lost.

The name of this locality is given for the nearby mountain top. Kristen Dale calls this area "potentially interesting". That sounds credible enough to at least take a look.

It would be great if someone took the time to visit this area and report back to Mindat.
