Up up up

We've had such amazing weather so far! Sunshine most day, no rain except on our second day and the nights are getting warmer, too. So warm indeed that I slept til 8:30am today without even waking up once in the early morning, as I usually do.

Today was a day full of new acquaintances: we saw a guy riding the trail on his mountain bike (which Johanne found more than impressive :) ), a few dozen polar rabbits, hundreds of annoying but harmless flies and a handfull fellow hikers. The ladder means Johanne has already won a bet for a beer once we get to town. We each guessed how many people we'd meet on the trail in total and I said 6, Johanne said 8. It's been 9 so far, including 3 local hunters.

The trail was really beautiful today, going uphill onto a rocky fjell covered in lichen and boulders, which is where we met all the rabbits (see pic 4). We're camping on a terrace overlooking a large swamp, which we will cross tomorrow. We're hoping to stay dry, but the swamp looks vast and we've already been in so much water on the trail. We'll see. It's bedtime for now :)En savoir plus
