Love the picture of the Lunar Solo! As much as we pride ourselves in being able to achieve catalogue-perfect taut pitches sometimes our chosen camp site doesn't 'co-operate'!
Yes. Sometimes, very seldom, there is no perfect lawn to pith the tent. On this spot there where only small stone. Needed the tent because of some nasty bugs. The view from the campsite was amazing. Only a few meters from the great lake Vänern.
Nice pictures Roger, yeah tent sites can be a challenge at times, those are the times I say I should have bought a bivy. The limestone walls are a pleasant change from those further south. Are there limestone caves in the area?
Roger, there are no caves there. They have been used the limestone as building material abt 1000 years. This part of Sweden are filled of old churches and ruins of monasteries. Some of thoose will be the target for a coming trip later this autumn.
The Lunar Solo pitched in a different way :-)
Prepairing some breakfast at the Evernew stove.
