Had a full day of fun in Ramundberget! They have a new(ish) ski lift that takes you up in the summer, and the Tusen restaurant on top is open during the lift operating hours. So I took the lift up, walked around on the tundra in search of photo ops, but it wasn’t very easy…

I can see Ånnfjället and Gråstöten from my kitchen window. As it was with Blåstöten last year, it has been annoying to see Gråstöten every time I look out the window, but not have been to the peak yet. I conquered Ånnfjället many years ago, in fact it was one of the first mountains I’ve…

Had a friend for a visit for a couple of days, nice with company! As always when I have visitors who are not familiar with Funäsfjällen, the first place I take them is Djupdalsvallen. The idea was to go up Stor-Mittåkläppen so the waffles would be well deserved, but the weather had other ideas –…

It was going to be a long walk ahead today, and I wanted to be carrying as little as possible. So I only took one lens per camera (wideangle with Sony and macro with Canon), no tripod and I even left an extra layer of clothes behind me. Which I came to regret quite soon,…

While everyone else was busy dancing around maypoles, I used my day on the first ”real” hike of the summer. And indeed, it felt like summer, despite the snow and the little bit of ice I found on the tarn which was target for the day. The tarn is between the peaks of Lill-Skarven and…

You know how I often talk about the problems I have with boots? Well, here’s a pair of boots that have never given me blisters. They are so good that I have worn them out, the seams started to come apart! I’ve already had to replace the laces and as you can see, the leather doesn’t…

I had my alarm clock set at 2am to check out if the aurora would be happening. But I got a wakeup call earlier than that – Miika had noticed that the aurora were glowing wild so I put on some warm clothes (it was below freezing), picked up the camera and tripod and went…

It got cloudy yesterday afternoon and it was still cloudy in the morning, so we didn’t have to do another early morning. Which was just as well, because our plan was to hike to Helags today so it was good to have a good night’s sleep in reserve. We left after lunch and there were…

I was going to do a short walk, just long enough to see if my new insoles fixed the Haglöfs-boot chafing problem. I took Hateful Hill* #2 up to Kappruskaftet and I was just going to walk around for a while, and get my 365. It was cloudy so it wasn’t really any good for…

I painted two out of the remaining three windows before a late lunch, and then drove to Djupdalsvallen to finish off my vacation with a waffle. I’m a little bit shocked but I think I’m getting over waffles… or at least the whipped cream on top. The coffee was good though, as usual. My knee…
