Partly clouded, and still cold. To avoid the osier do we walk high up on the
slope. Here and there are a few birches. Beautifull view of the valley with
the Mattåive (1467) mountain on the other side. We eat our lunch in
the Låddejåkkå hut at the Padjelanta track.
From here do we follow the track to Staloluokta.
Discuss the weather yesterday with the elderly host and hostess
of the hut. They had seen the clouds coming, it was like a moving wall.
We stay a short moment at the bridge over Låddejåkkå
to look at the cataracts in the river. The track continue
along a small snow covered brook up to Pårka (ca 900m). We encounter a few
showers, at higher altitude with snow. After Pårka is it downhill. It
clears up, and we can see the outlet of Mielätno into Virihaure. Enough
for today. We are waiting for the midnight sun. It miidnight is the sky clear, the mountains on
the other side of Virihaure is coloured in red. It is cold, around zero degrees.
