Okay I am going on an hiking vacation on Friday.

Travelling with the train from Stockholm to Abisko about 1500km for 20h and then it is just me and a pal in the nature for two weeks.

Just did an inventory of the stuff I’ll bring along 71 different items with a total weight of 19861grams

But then the tent is 4500grams and it’s my pals work to carry it this year :evil:

Now I just have to buy the food and then I am all set :D

I’ll be seeing you all in about two weeks or so and I’ll bring photos for those that is interested.

Uuuuhhh.. :? :o :( ME WANTS! :D

I'm not having vacations in August, this year. On the other hand, I'm going biking with two friends from tomorrow to monday, so I'm quite content right now :P

Have plenty of fun, and don't forget the basic tools. It sucks to have your vacations ruined because you forgot the chain tool.

There is nothing like a little nature to put things into perspective. Two weeks, that sounds great. will you be hunting for food or bringing all you need?

It's all a national Park and I don't have any license to hunt.

Keep in mind that it is not hunting season here so fishing is about the only legal food supplement.

So I have to bring all the food freeze dryed that do not taste to good so spices and tabasco is a must :)
