What a contrast it is to the trip in March. Back then it was cold, windy and overcast and now it’s just sunshine from a cloudless sky, hardly any wind to speak of and therefore quite warm, even if the thermometer insisted that it was just a couple of degrees above freezing. By the time…

The main reason I came to cabin this early in the season (the season being the late winter) was to try out backcountry ski boots which I will need for the trip in March. I drove to Bruksvallarna and rented boots and skis and then took on the trail up towards Kariknallen. I didn’t like…

I had a day off and headed to the cabin. The first thing was to take the shortest route up to the tundra and once again, I hated the way up. I was sweating buckets and must’ve looked quite beat because a passing snowmobiler took pity on me and asked if I would like to…

What a glorious morning. It had been very cold at night with clear skies, which meant that there was a lovely morning mist that I got to admire through the car window, as I was speeding down to my spot. For many years now I’ve been wanting to take a morning light picture of the…

I drove to Ljungdalen in the morning, the target was to hike up the Södra Gröndörrstöten fell that I missed in the summer. I took the pilgrim trail towards Helags and I got rained on at first, but it was just showers that drew by quickly so I was spared from the same misery as…

When I said yesterday that I have done all the important stuff at the cabin, it wasn’t exactly accurate – I did have the blocks of firewood that still needed chopping before they rot away. I’ve been wondering how I’m going to do that because I’m not really an ax-wielding kind of woman, but I…

I took the day off. I’ve had this headache since last week but the weird (or not so weird) part of it is that I only suffer from it at work. Almost as soon as I get home, I hardly notice it – it’s still there, but just not bothering me. So it’s not a…

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…

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…
