No DPM. But I wear flectarn gore tex (surplus), and carry a Norwegian army rucksack (Camo). Why? Because the flecktarn cost a fraction of what a civilian jacket/trousers does, and the rucksack was free (issued by the government).

Most People I know of make it into syrup. Boil (or rather simmer) the spruce tips in water (water barely covering the spruce tips) for half an hour. Remove the spruce tips and mix the Liquid wit sugar in a 3 to 2 ratio. Simmer until syrup (the color will turn redish). Use on ice cream...

Bought one a couple of months ago. I`ve used it only once. But it is good kit. No warping from the heat, and functions as it should. That said; only other fire Box I`ve used is the Tentipi Hekla 7 (wich I use in my lavvu)

Helle is as "handmade" as other Production knives. I`ve seen some that I wouldnt have bought, due to IMO bad antler quality. Helle usually replace broken knives (at least they did. My earlier boss is on his Third Hunter). Didn`t know they had a fan page? Most People take contact With Helle...

The newspaper Vårt Land says about 9000 visited the market in 2016. About 2000 of them children.

Interesting landscape. Looks a bit like the landscape did look like along the coast up here some decades ago. Now the trees are taking over once again.

Birch roots have been used here for the same purpose.

Good report. It is Nice to see other parts of Norway which I don`t usually visit. I`ve been in these areas as a kid (lived 7 years in Vennesla), but don`t remember much of it. Just a correction to Your text. Blåsjø is the largest Power produser, not the largest in area nor volume.

Magnetic declination isn`t up there. It isn`t nesseccary larger in the North than elsewhere. In the Atlantic (ekvator) the magnetic declination is larger than where I live. Here is a map from the web showing the magnetic declination in 2015.
