The return of the sun. We have a lazy morning,
and we let the tent
dry in the sunshine. It is relaxing to sit at the lake, feeling the
warm
sunshine, while the tent get dry.
The day is spent on Kungsleden. This close to Kvikkjokk is it a well
used
broad track through the forest. Roots and stones create artistic
patterns
on the ground, though it is not comfortable to walk on. After have
been at the bare mountain region, do the forest give a feeling of being
locked
in. But the forest has its own beauty. We are not far from Kvikkjokk,
and we arrive just after lunch time to the mountain station.
This year do we allow ourselves a double room at the mountain
station.
Avoiding sharing a hut with somebody else,as we did last time 1982.
After having installed
ourselves,
do we examine the rapids of Kamajåkkå more closely. The
water
is in a great hurry. We walk slowly on the rocks beside it, thinking,
many
people spent all their lives in such a hurry. Buy food in the small
shop
in the village for breakfast and the journey back home tomorrow. The
dinner
is enjoyed in the restaurant at the mountain station. In the evening is
there a slide show about the area, showing all the animals one never
see.
They
hear or see you before you see them, and they disappear. One should sit
down
and
be quite for a few days and waiting for them. Next morning do we walk
down to the bus stop, which is just outside the mountain station at a
small house with a kiosk.
