reindeer

the spot for getting the drinking water at Abiskojaure

my first night on the trail

I'd come from back that direction!

me below one of the huts

Johan - check out the "bridge" - 2x4s overlapping each other!

Johan takes a moment to absorb it all. We walked together this one day and it was delightful.

I bathed just below that big patch of snow to the left.

I called this place "Mordor" - I moved from cairn to cairn as this was the only manner of trail by which to cross the moraine.

I'd make my way down to the river and then follow alongside it for the rest of the day.

I don't know if you can see them, but just past the two hikers coming toward me is a small herd of reindeer.

My very red toes after a massage from a river. Trust me, the water was cold!
