It is still cloudy, but there is no rain. We the fording
place we found yesterday, which gives no problem. Though it has rained
is there not much water in the brook. On the other side is it possible
to climb up since the rock has collapses. It is a steep uphill to the plateau
above Låmepuolta and beneath Låmetjåkkå, the plateua
is at the altitude of 1200m. An armada of small clouds sail beneath us
in Njåtjosvagge. It is fascinating to watch them as they pass beneath
us, they partly hide the view of the valley. Above us is a compact layer
of clouds. The plateau is comfortable to walk on, dressed with grass as
it mainly is.We pass a few small ponds. At Palkat-jåkkå is
it steep down to the jåkk. Though difficult to estimate, since the
view is partly hidden by the clouds. We aim for Luottolako, so we
turn ninety degrees, climb a small vertical wall, and is entering Luottolako.
A stony barren landscape meet us.
The mountain peaks and the glaciers in the east have pulled down the
curtain, now and then do they open it up to let us watch them. In the west
are the mountains not visible for us. Various types of lichens live on
the stones, almost the only life visible here. It is a stony place,
but they are small and packed which makes it easy to walk. One stone attract
our attention, unfortunately are we not geologists. The stone is very beautiful,
different from all the others. To Nåitevagge is it a stonefloor.
The entrance to the valley is rather narrow, the mountain Nåite is
our landmark to find it. There is not much growing in upper part of the
narrow valley, but life returns in the valley as we descend. We choose
to walk on the west side of the brook, why I do not remember. Probably
no reason at all, but perhaps did we not trust to find a camping site on
the other side. Where the valley meet Lullihavagge are good camping sites.
