This years trip was to Sarek National Park in the far North of Sweden an,area protected with World heritage status.With mountains over 2000m and 100 glaciers,a place of  both long deep narrow valleys,but also wide flat high ones.Both of which  are criss crossed with wild rivers and glacier fed Lakes all joined together by miles of high alpine tundra and only 2 bridges in the park It took us a full day of flights and trains and taxis to get to Lulea where we met up with Christie Crowler who had just finished her walk,we were to meet Matt Holland,who was going to join us,but the bad weather and the big storm had him change his plans    Hotel was ok and close to the train staition,which we needed in the morning,so after grabbing our fuel off Christie (fanks again) we went to our room and got everything packed away We then all met up and went for tea as Chrissie told us of the storm they had caught at the end of her walk,she bumped into Dale too while out hiking  Th...

Day 2 started dry,there had been some overnight rain,but unfortunately no clear skies.We were away for 8 am with what looked like on the map some wet ground to cover    The ground was exceedingly wet as made our way across the pathless ground,but full of colur,in all the mosses and linchens.All sat under a grey sky.But we did get to spot some herds of  deer as we made our way across too the river,we needed to cross   This is where i crossed it was very nearly leg deep for the last two steps ! but not too fast or cold,well  not icey cold at least.As soon as id crossed i stripped of my trousers and socks and wrung them out  Old Sami shelter  I set off a bit quicker and soon had the heat back in my legs and socks soon started to dry out,above my brother who choose to cross further up stream,too quick looking for my liking  Once we had warmed up some we stopped for lunch on a higher bump in the land,a few deer looked up and just carried on past t...
