Reisadalen, part 1, 22km

Slept 12 hours. At some point winds must have stopped. It was raining all night. Lots of condensation on my sleeping bag. But rain has mostly stoped now so I start quite early.

Descend into Reisadalen was a nightmare. But Imoforsen amazing. The climb down was horrible thanks to all the wet rocks. The valley is gorgeous. Break at Nedreforsstua. Another coffee. Yum. And that good bread I brought. Some more kilometers it starts raining again. I stop at a cute cabin. Take a shit and get the stove going. Thankfully I found a knife by the lake we camped at day two. The trail provides I guess. For stupid reasons I left mine at home and wouldn’t have been able to make a fire now.

It’s raining cats and dog for the rest of the day. The trail is the worst shit. Completely overgrown, so often just few centimeters to walk on or you slide into the river. No more shelters the last 20km. I call it bullshit!

Camped next to a presumably empty cabin. The moment I closed my eyes someone came and started chopping wood from the wet log stash next to my tent. Thanks. And I wonder how that turned out. Later some more people arrived even with a child. Used ear plugs and could sleep well.Read more
