I'll start by saying many thanks to Cliff and Dave for making it a great trip.
I am sure they'll be along at some-time to add some better photos and fill in some of the details.
I apologise in advance if the timeline and name places are wrong... it's my age you know...
Here we go:
After Meeting at Cliff's house and having a final meal and a couple of cans we were driven by Cliff's wife to the Station to catch the train to Gatwick Airport..
A night in the airport was followed by a smooth trip over by Norwegian Air and on final approach, the views gave us a hint at things to come:
A quick bus ride into Oslo town to pick up some Rations and we were off to spend two days/nights at Huk Beach:
The main method of cooking was two stoves and plenty of pine cones. A back up gas stove was also taken:
Set ups were tarps for Twodogs and Myself and a tent for MuddyBoots
The view from our pitches:
It may look sunny but it was chilly out:
And to let us know it hailed every so often.
As we were staying here for two days fire wood prep and camp improvements were undertaken from driftwood along the beach.
No need to rough it when out:
The morning of day 3 in country saw us on a bus, then a train out to Frognerseteren and we were hitting the bottom edge of the Nordmarka:
Constant brew stops along the route were taken to rehydrate:
and rest:
and take in the surroundings:
Water was a case of smash the ice in places:
With plenty of time left in the day we arrived at our home for the next two days:
Yep, another frozen lake. Tryvannstud
