It’s still overcast, but the clouds are not quite as low as yesterday. There’s very little definition in the clouds, everything just looks… soft. In the summer when it’s high pressure, we have the puffy cumulus clouds against a blue sky. In the winter with high pressure, we have a soft grey sky. So, better…

It was an overcast day with clouds hanging below 1000m, so I decided to do a geocaching trip instead of hiking. There’s quite a few caches on the Ljungdalen side that I haven’t logged yet, plus that I wanted to check out the Djävulshålet (Devil’s Hole) canyon near Tossåsen. Amazingly, I managed to find all…

The weather is turning colder and it was snowing last week. Here in Ljusnedal, it was a wet snow which didn’t settle on the ground, but as soon as you got a bit higher, it was proper snowfall. When the clouds finally cleared, I was looking at Ånnfjället which was completely covered in the white…

I’m pretty good at not losing things. What I mean is that if I lose something, I find it again. Sometimes quickly, sometimes after a long while, but those lost things have a habit of coming back to me. Most of the time, anyway. A couple of weeks ago I lost the remote for my…

I drove to Ljungdalen in search of autumn colours. And found them – it looks like Flatruet is forming a barrier for the moths. North from Flatruet, it looked stunning. South, not so. Well, maybe I should say, it would have looked stunning if had been possible to see more than 50m. The clouds were…

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.…
