Good morning to the world. We say good morning since the morning present us
with beautiful weather. This weather stay with us all day, the same do
a minor cloud with mosquitos. Our plan for the day is to walk on
the hills north of Sitojaure, from wher we look forward to see the view
over the lake. First we walk up the hillside to 1200 meters, a difference
of 400 meters, north of the hill Tjaraknjunnje (1218). After the first
steeper part is it rather flat. It is perfect to walk here. Then we see
it, the view. It is far reaching in all directions, towards west or the
mountains Skårki, towards east are gentle hills. In the middle is
the lake Sitojaure surrounded with forests and marshes. We can watch it
for several hours, while we continue. We walk on slope of the hill 1192.
At Kårsåkaska is a brook in a rather deep gorge, filled
with water. Nature has made a bridge of snow, probably specially made for
us. The slopes of the "gorge" feels steep, and.the backpacking feels
heavy. When get up on the other side of the gorge is the view disappearing
from our sight.
As
we are leaving the view, do we get into a more stony area as we approach
Kuotekvagge. It is even more stony around the lake Kuotekjaure, though
it is still an easy terrain where we walk north of the lake. We continue
on the slope up towards the watershed of Kuotekvagge northwest of the lake,
then passing the almost empty brook Vuovresjåkåtj. We stop
at another small brook, with Sitoätno in front of us. At a distance
can we see the mountains in Kukkesvagge. Strange, they do not hide behind
any clouds. That is otherwise the normal condition when we see it. They
have previous years been very shy when we have visited them. This looks
promising for tomorrow, our main goal this year is to walk Kukkesvagge
in sunshine. But now we rise our tent, it has been a long day and we feel
tired.
