We are in between seasons now, but the Andersborg waffle cabin in Tänndalen has been open, until this weekend. So if you want any waffles in the mountains, this is the last chance until the winter season begins! Not one to miss out on the opportunity, I did today’s hike to Andersborg and beyond. Specifically,…
Today was going to be a sunny day so I did what I wanted to do last Saturday – up to Ånnfjället and see if my map scouted panorama spot is as good as I hoped. There were quite a lot of clouds around in the morning, but they were the kind of fluffy clouds…
It was just one of those days. Nothing turned out the way I planned. The forecast (three of them) said it would be half sunny in the morning and overcast in the afternoon, so I was out early and hiked up the infernal trail to Ånnfjället and then headed to a new spot I discovered earlier…
With the weather as it was, I was getting a bit desperate to find good option for hiking. But on Friday night, I finally had a good idea and expanded my search for good weather – and found it in Sonfjället. Well, theoretically anyway. You never know how those forecasts really turn out in reality.…
It rained a lot on Thursday and suddenly the water level in Ljusnan is as high as it was in June. The waterfall at Kvarnströmmen has not even existed in the past weeks, and now it’s roaring loud. All this water means that my great idea to do waterfall shooting goes out the window, there’s just…
Another visit to my new favourite place, it has been raining today but there was a chance of sunny spells in the evening so it was worth a try. Even if the light didn’t work, there’s plenty of cloudberries to pick. I don’t particularly like them, but there’s so much of them this year that…
There’s this lake, Bolagen, north-east from Storvigeln. I’ve never figured out why it’s called like that, as the only meaning that I know for bolagen is the plural of bolag = company (as in corporation). But, a rose by any other name… So I went there this morning to see what the lake is like…
One of my big plans is to hike to Skarsfjället, camp by the lake in the ”bowl” and then conquer the peak (or two). It would be the furthest hike I’ve ever done outside any trails and although this should not be a concern, I make it such. Too many unknowns at once, I feel…
I can see Ånnfjället and Gråstöten from my flat. It’s not only very cool (Ånnfjället is one of my favourite mountains!) but it’s also been interesting to see how long time it takes for the snow to melt. When I moved here, they were covered in snow, just a few black patches. Then it snowed…
Fulfilled one of my longtime plans and cycled the Mittåkläppsvägen road from Bruksvallarna to Djupdalsvallen (and beyond). Emphasis was on cycling, not photo, so I was in snapshot mode. I almost never do this, but this time I wanted to take pictures to show what the day was like and not worry about the light or…
