This is one really for anyone that lives in Northern Norway, but any advice from anyone will be greatly appreciated!
Ive lost contact with my Norwegian fixer and mine of info / all round top lad, last year, through me having too cancel the original expedition.
But the proposed area has stuck in my mind and I have set my sights on having a crack at it anyway.
1 week planned for late August- early September this summer (2014)
Solo bushcrafting, Kayaking and fishing.
This is the rough (ish) plan, ill get to the nuts and bolts in a second
Land at Evenes airport, gatwick-oslo-Evenes.
Travel East on the E10 (by whatever means possible) via Bogen - Lenvik - Lenvikmarka
until I reach a body of water called Gallojavri then travel back on myself heading West with the Kayak using the river that connects
the lakes, Gallojavri with Holmvatnet -Duorggajavri - smatvatnan. then making my way back too Evenes airport and home.
I know there is a national fishing licence I need to get but that is easy enough, what I do need is a regional fishing licence,
These can be obtained from post offices and conveiniance stores (I have no idea if I can pick this up in Evenes or Bogen?)
Also im going to need fuel, I cant find any real details about my stops (that are in English anyway), and the big one is transport
down the E10 (is hitchhiking legal in Norway)
I know this must seem a pretty dull post, not rammed with pictures of derring doo and chopping wood
but hopfully one of you brothers and sisters
will take pitty on me and give me a heads up on any of the logistical problems im up against in this no doubt absolutely awesome
Adventure
yours hopefully G
