29. The Blood Mountain

About

In a bay at lake Åsnen, the legend has it that Blända and her women washed blood off themselves after the battle with the Danes. Ever since, the bay has been known as Blodviken ("Blood Bay") and the mountain as Blodberget ("Blood Mountain"). Another explanation for the odd name is that in ancient times, blood sacrifices were made to the old Norse gods.
