1997-07-28 - Geargevaggi - Singi
Today we woke up with some clouds in the sky but still warm. The hike to Sälka started at 10.55. In Sälka we were supplied with food and we met the Skene boys for the first time. They came in military clothes and untied jogging shoes. Someone had asked them if they were on duty.

We kept moving towards Singi where we met a real native driving a motorcycle along the path. He was out for reindeer marking. We asked him about the classic bridge and he said that the bridge hasn't been placed for years. We passed Singi cottage and continued a couple of kilometers before we stopped for the night at 10 PM. It was easy to hike the whole day despite of the mosquitoes.

At 3 AM a lot of reindeers runs just outside our tent. It was the marking that the native told us about.
