It’s officially the last day of the season – Djupdalsvallen closes today. It’s my favourite waffle place so naturally I had to have a waffle there and celebrate (or commiserate) the last day of my holiday; I will leave in the morning tomorrow so there will be no more hiking then. When I got to…

I had no idea what to do today. There is one subject matter I have not touched all week and that’s waterfalls and I did kind of think of shooting at a brook nearby, but the day was too sunny for that (can’t complain though). So I spent the morning taking care of some odds…

After a couple of rainy and snowy days, the weather is turning. Today will be sunny so I drove to Måns-Erstjärnen, which is one of my favourite places. But I’ve never walked all the way around it and today was the day to do it. Twice, as it turned out. Anyway, when I arrived at…

While I’ve been on holiday, Canon released a new SLR and it’s the fullframe 6D as rumoured. So that’s it then – it’s my new camera! Just as well that I didn’t get the Tokina 16-28mm and Canon 24-105mm lenses sold, because now I will need them. Those investments I made in the Tokina 11-16mm…

The weather forecast said that it would be raining today but not very much so I decided to hike locally and took off to the Svartmorgraven ravine. When I got up on Flatruet, I found that the clouds were very low and the visibility was in fact quite poor. For a moment I was wondering…

The morning was rainy so I took it easy (lazy) at the cabin. The weather forecast said that it would clear up in the afternoon and sure enough it did, so I took off to Kappruskaftet. It’s fast becoming a favourite place for me and I was looking forward to exploring it in the evening…

Today’s hike is one of the ”guldtur” hikes in Funäsfjällen. The description says it’s 19 km and I’m not sure how long it will take me – it all depends on how many photo opportunities there are on the way! Just to make sure I could take it as slow as needed, I drove to…

My long awaited holiday is here! I’ve really been looking forward to a week in the mountains because this year we actually have some colours, unlike the massive disappointment that was 2011. The only threat I can I see is the wind because the weather forecast says that it’s going to be rather windy all…

Last night when I checked the weather forecast, it said it would be part sunny with chance of showers. So I woke up with high expectations, was met with grey skies and during breakfast, rain. Ok then, showers started earlier than I anticipated. I packed my gear and drove to Rockvallen, knowing that it would…

Flatruet is a long plateau in an east-west direction with Messlingen lying at the foot of it in the south-east. There are some peaks rising from Flatruet, Ruändan is where the plateau ”ends” in the east and in the middle there’s a few other peaks. Today’s target was to conquer one of those middle peaks,…
