Just got back from Oslo Nordmarka , quick and easy flight out of Liverpool to Oslo torp with Ryan air jump on the local T-bane (underground) that gets you here,
Half a K down the trail and set up for the night ,
Bit scruffy but you get the idea ,
Cooked with a small wood burner on this trip worked very well and added to experience ,
As the need for fire outweighs how you get if some what I call “ Magic biscuits” were made up and as a last resort a bit of bike inner tube was also carried ,

Next day up early with rain in the air and hit the trail ,
Passed some locals out camping ,
Plus some logging,
Then it rained Forest Gump style ,
Taking cover in the trees,
Twas a bit damp ,
Headed for a local lodge that for some reason reminded me of the banana splits,
Then back to the trail ,Dakar?
The rain started to lift ,,yarr,,
somebodys old shelter ,
Rain stoped just wet for a bit ,
Couple of local birds ,
The nights set up ,
Firing up the stove with all wet wood got there in the end ,
Next day blue skys ,yarrrrr
Back on the trail,
Brew time ,
Trail time ,
Anyway late afternoon and Im mincing around a lake looking for a place to set up for the the night a theres some naturists all male sunbathing ,,,,yuk , time to move on no women very odd …
That nights pitch ,
More cooking on wood ,
Next morning after a very lazy start its back on the trail ,
Snaped tree ,
Finished up at this station and headed into Oslo to return to the airport ,
The last night was spent in the woods near the airport no tent up very low key ,,yarr .
