Yesterday morning wasn’t very promising but the forecast said that the clouds would clear in the afternoon, so I tried to time my skiing so that I would at my favourite Gråstöten viewpoint just before sunset. It might have worked otherwise, but the sun disappeared behind clouds before it set. I was really racing against…

Without the car, I needed a plan B. There’s a shuttle bus service between Fjällnäs and Ramundberget so all I needed was a lift to Funäsdalen to catch the bus, the idea was to go to Bruksvallarna and then ski home. My landlord was kind and drove me to Funäs, so there I was at…

My car doesn’t like these cold temperatures. I’ve never had a problem before, but then again I’ve lived in places where it rarely got colder than -20°C. Now the car has been standing outside in -30°C and the dashboard is lit like a Christmas tree with all kinds of warnings I don’t want to see. I…

What a difference a day makes, now it’s snowing! It was really great to go out skiing again, I followed Ljusnan but now it’s almost completely frozen, there’s only a little bit of open water left. With all this new snow, I’m already looking forward to next weekend!

It’s been very cold this week, some mornings (like today) it’s been almost -30°C and it doesn’t get much ”warmer” during the day. On a sunny day it’s really beautiful out, but quite honestly, not beautiful enough for me to endure that kind of temperatures! There’s plenty of winter left and when the quicksilver rises…

I did some scouting yesterday, I walked the winter trail from Ljusnedal to Lillvallarna and beyond, almost up to the tree line. When I came to a sign which said Ljusnedal 7 km (the direction I came from), and Ljusnedal 10 km (if continuing on the ski trail), I decided to turn back. I was so…

I went skiing yesterday, and paid the price today. My muscles are aching… too fast, too soon. So I was not in the mood to ski today, but I wanted to do something fun anyway, and ended up walking up to Kariknallen. It’s pretty icy up there, so walking was actually easier than skiing. The snow…

Another day, another snowfall, another walk. I’m really enjoying this. 🙂 Gotta go skiing next weekend!

We almost lost the winter yesterday when it got really warm and it even started raining. But before all the snow was gone, the temperature dipped below freezing at night and it started snowing and I reckon that all the snow that melted yesterday, snowed back down today. Which works great for me! Since it’s…

I’ve been laying low after the intensive week in Scotland. The trip gave me a reason to start seriously thinking about my photography, what do I want from it and where am I going with it? It has a lot to do with expectation levels and without going into details at the moment, I decided…
