I spent the weekend at the cabin. I wanted to try out something and didn’t bring a computer with me, just to see if I would miss it or not. Turns out, I didn’t miss it at all – in fact, I wouldn’t have had time to switch it on anyway. I had a big…

When you drive to Messlingen from the south, you pass two isolated mountain massives, the first one is Sonfjället which you can see from the lay-by right after Linsell, and the second one is Särvfjället which is visible about half-way on the road between Hede and Messlingen. Sonfjället has a very recognisable profile but Särvfjället…

I visited the Livsäterån creek 5 years ago and was absolutely spellbound by the many waterfalls. I’ve been meaning to go back, but it hasn’t happened until today. Some of the waterfalls seemed familiar, but what really got me scratching my head was that I couldn’t find the same kind of compositions I did the…

A friend is visiting me, it’s nice to have company up on a mountain. We hiked up to Kappruet but once again the weather was playing tricks and we even got rained on, on a day when it wasn’t supposed to be any of that. But even if I keep complaining about the weather, the…

This is it, opening of the summer waffle season! I drove to Bruksvallarna and took the toll road to Mittåkläppen. The target for the day’s hike was Lill-Axhögen. There’s a 4-wheeler road that follows the valley to the west, and this road would take me very close to the mountain. But instead of wasting time…

It was going to be one of those rare non-overcast days so I had planned a big hike. I drove to Torkilstöten in Ljungdalen and the idea was that I would hike to Norra (North) Gröndörrstöten and energy allowing, Södra (South) Gröndörrstöten as well. The weather was really dull with no sign of that sun…

A rainy day, one of the many on this vacation I think… there’s more to come. But in the afternoon when the clouds were lifting a little bit, I drove out to Västra Storbäcken which is a nice little creek running down from Flatruet to the Mittån river. When you take the road between Mittådalen…

I drove to the cabin yesterday morning and in the afternoon I was ready for my first hike. The weather was warm, surprisingly warm actually considering the complete cloud cover and wind, but I think the air humidity was quite high which made it feel warmer than those 18 degrees that the thermometer told me.…

I’ve been a bit lazy about updating the blog so here’s a bunch of random pictures and thoughts from the past week. As I mentioned in the last post, I went on an excursion with the camera club to Klövsjö. It was actually quite nice and we got 50/50 weather – pouring rain in the…

This is actually my last day at the cabin. I’m leaving indecently early tomorrow morning to meet up with some camera club members in Klövsjö for a day of shooting. I have no expectations about the photography, but it will be nice to have some company after four days in the cabin alone. Today’s activity…
