The decision wasn’t easy but we had no choice. This day started with a lot a hiking in the marshes. It was really wet but we were lucky that there were no mosquitoes. There was also one brook with a lot of water to pass so we had to take off our boots. Then slightly uphill to the tree boarder. After some hours we met a Norwegian couple who were painting the path signs. That explains why we could follow the signs so easy! We stopped at 13 PM for food and some feet care. When Hansson showed his heels it really hurt. Big blisters! But with a lot of tape and compeed he was soon ready again. We walked at nice paths and met a lot of reindeers, what more could we wish? In the valley Naustådalen, there was a wind shelter which was built a few years ago after a tragic accident when two people were frozen to death in the middle of the summer. Halfway between Naustbu and Kårvatn it was time again to put up our tent among cows and birches. The entire ground was also crowded with bilberry. We just added some milk and some sugar…   Picture comment   Picture (thumbnail) Picture 02-4-42 But we selected another route, towards Kårvatn. Picture 02-4-43 Fuglsöysätra.
