  • The season is closing – last day of business at Djupdalsvallen! You better bet I was going there. This time on foot, I walked from Ramundberget in the hopes of finding some nice colours. Alas, the birches are very affected by the moth larvae, and with the cloud cover being what it was, the little…

  • Hamrafjället is another quick peak that you can do after work when the sun sets just after 7pm. I also love the view towards north with all the lakes, although today I didn’t feel like standing around and look at it. The wind was biting cold! The season is winding to its close… soon the…

  • I’ll never get tired of Ånnfjället. It doesn’t matter how many times I’m up there, but I always find something new. I’m not talking about summiting it every time, I mean the peak gets uninteresting really quickly. All you need is to get above the tree line, and the options are endless! My new favourite…

  • One of the best places to shoot autumn colours is the Össjödalen valley, so I went there today to see if I could find some birches which are not savaged by the moth larvae. I was very pleased to see that it was looking good and the colours are peaking, and I also found some…

  • For the third time within a week, I got myself up to Funäsdalsberget. The weather forecast wasn’t very promising and it rained a little at first, but then it got better – much better than forecast. On the other hand, last Sunday it was much worse than forecast. On Wednesday it was worse than forecast.…

  • Same thing as yesterday – straight up a mountain after work. This time on Funäsdalsberget, because for years I have been dreaming about getting a killer panorama of Anåfjället and it was borderline possible that the conditions would be right today. Evening light, some nice clouds… that would be the ticket. It started promisingly, I…

  • 15 minutes after signing off from work, I was on the trail up to Ånnfjället. Awesome! It rained a little bit at first and the threat of rain was ever present during the hike, even when the sun came out just for a brief moment. But the rain really makes the colours stand out, and…

  • I spotted another waterfall in satellite pictures and scouted the spot in Fjällnäs a couple of months ago. Been waiting for an opportunity to shoot the falls since then, and today I finally got there. I was hoping for a bit more colour in the trees, but it is what it is – the moth…

  • Now how long have I been thinking about doing the via ferrata in Funäsdalen? No more! I figured, how hard can it be, they send up tourists in wholesale without prior climbing experience and no rope teams and no guides… I’ve done a via ferrata in the Alps, this should be a piece a cake!…

  • There are good days, and there are bad days. And then there are great days. Like today. 🙂 I have a few caches that I haven’t logged in this region. Five of them are in Messlingen, so that was my target today. On the way, I stopped at the Kappruet Trädgårdscafé for lunch, been meaning…
