Sunday daytrip

A wonderful day in the forrest of "Vättlefjäll". The snow was melting this sunny day. The ces on the lakes was no longer safe to enter. Two weeks ago you could cross every lake in the area.
We made a fire near the shelter and have some hot dogs for lunch. Mmmm...
And Winston, the dog get some as well :-)
In the forrest there where snow up to your knee. Very wet snow.
Not a UL-trip. We used more traditional euqipment and heavy boots.

Preparing for sunday daytrip

My son and I will take a daytrip in a nearby forrest tomorrow.
Not the lightest euqipment. Bring a foldable saw and a small axe. There will fire at lunch time. The last days warm weather has melted a lot of the snow. Don't know if its possible to walk on the ice.
Will report after the trip-or maybe som Iphone photos during the day.

Longing for a day trip

It had been a hard week at work. Some unexpected things has occured, wich will have big effect to all of us. The company will close at summer... Looks like I have a lot of time for hiking-or not.

Will try to make some tours in the weekend. At least on sunday there will be possibilitys to be out all day. On saturday night we will visit a consert with both The Temptations and For Tops. Nice!

Weight loss

Have since september 2009 joined the Weight Watchers... I'm serious!

Hard to beat that kind of reduce by UL garments. Will ha nice effect on knees and feet on coming trips.
