Hi,

Been bit by the nature bug the last two years, thought I'd share some photos from my trip across norway last year, and my trip over hardangervidda this year. (Not good photos, but photos of pretty dope areas in Norway none the less).




Taken atop one of the mountains surrounding Bygdin lake.




Just a quick picture of one of the awesome public use cabins in Norway, we've got 500+ of these sweet lodgings. Many of which have solar panels for charging and provisions you can buy. All of which has a kitchen, gas, wood and a stove to warm up by.




These are from Skarveheimen in Norway, various places along the mountain ridge from north to south


Another cabin at Skarveheimen, called Kongshelleren.


Me enjoying the sub-zero temperatures of summer weather in Norway.




Here are some of Aurlandsdalen, a pretty famous days hike in Norway. Recommended to start at 6-7am to avoid the huge crowd of people that starts at 8am. The last one you can spot a farm on the right side of the cliff face in the middle. This place is so remote that they used to have a designated tree to hang corpses from during winter because the trek back to the graveyard down the mountain area was too difficult during winter times.















These are all from my trip this summer over Hardangervidda, from Finse to Haukeli.


Just as a quick tip, if you ever want to hike in Norway during summertime and you want to have it for yourself, go in June. Both my summertrips in June I've had nearly the whole trips by myself, this is despite every day ending at a Cabin.
You will have to ford a lot of rivers though, as most summerbridges aren't set up before the end of june.

Forgot about this one. This was a true test of willpower as I walked on by without taking a dip into this cruel mistress of a perfectly blue ice water pond.
