Waking up this morning at Vindelfjällen in Sweden. Not bad, and especially not hot 🙂.

Puolimaalaiset pitkästä aikaa pk:n ytimessä.

Ensin Kiasma jossa vaikutti eniten kuwaitilaisen taiteilijan öljyyn hukkuva ihmiskunta.

Sitten Vegalicious Pastry jonka luomukset olivat aivan parhautta. Kannattaa käydä kauempaakin 🥰!

Nyt hyvä levätä metsän laidalla 🙂.

Kotipihan komea asukki tuli vastaan. Ennen ei olla tavattukaan - mukava nähdä noin elinvoimainen yksilö 🩶.

Fingerporin tiekartta 😀.

Itse yksinkertaisena hyppäsin vaiheet yli 7,5 vuotta sitten kun tavoitteena oli hankkia suhteessa vähemmän haittaa aiheuttava kulkupeli entisen paljon ajetun bensa-auton tilalle.

Toki paras vaihtoehto olisi autottomuus.

Simppeli mökki-illallinen maistui hyvältä. Ja päälle jälkkäriksi lapsuusmuistoja seuraillen voipottu.

Ai mitä herkkua vaikka voi on sittemmin vaihtunut kasvirasvaan (kuten kaikki muukin kasvipohjaiseen).

Tuli kokeiltua tehdä eläimetön bataatticurry jonka oheen pitkästä aikaa riisiä.

Aivan hyvää, mitä nyt chiliä meni vähän liikaa kun unohdin ostaa tuoretta ja jauheen maun vahvistuminen haudutettaessa pääsi taas yllättämään tumpelon kokin... 😅

More photos of the sites and of info sheets placed there for hikers to know what has been done and why.

Interesting to follow the impact from nature diversification work done in Nuuksio National Park (Southern Finland) on former forestry land recently added to the park.

Bog restoration was initiated 4y ago by blocking and filling up trenches and controlled forest fire was done 2y ago.

Took a day off and went for a bit longer trail walk in with our kelpie prince keeping the pace up 😅.

Was peaceful and nice on familiar unmarked trails in Nuuksio national park in Finland. And enough up'n down to make feet feel they have done something 😀.

#hiking pictures from this morning, on the last day of my Easter trip.

Lake Koirajärvi in Salamajärvi national park was so serene, with remnants of ice melting away.

My #hiking image of day 6, the bottom dam made recently to control the water level of Iso-Valvatti near Salamajärvi NP in Finland.

The lake had been lowered long time ago to get a hay field. It then became wet sanctuary for birds but uneven water level was problematic - and the dam fixes it 🙂.

Otherwise day 5 was long 30 km stretch, in near summer weather.

Took a loop in Etelä-Sydänmaa and then started returning on my own footprints towards Salamajärvi NP.

#hiking picture of day 5:

What I managed to capture from the two big forest deers I got good glimpse of.

Hunted to extinction in Finland, now back to a degree thanks to bringing them back.

This deer is close relative to reindeer, but is fully wild and lives in forests.

Grand ☺️

Otherwise the day #4 was so sunny with spring advancing fast.

Most of the trail in Etelä-Sydänmaa and Suurijärvi was protected lands, going through the endlessly rocky pine forests, not to forget lots of mire and small lakes.

Yet found flat enough spot for my mid 🙂.

My #hiking picture of yesterday:

The "silencing space" in Suurijärvi recreational area in Pihtipudas, Finland.

Great idea as sitting in the stool narrows one's view of sight just right. Then there is just the pine woods to immerse in 🥰.

Otherwise the Peuran polku route took mostly outside protected areas so it was more of an observation of human impact. And to some extent road marching, which is tedious but somehow calming as well.

#hiking picture of yesterday, in the morning of my Easter holiday trip's third day. In Salamajärvi NP vicinity (Finland).

Four pics from yesterday in Salamajärvi NP and surroundings. Beautiful sunny early spring day, with night spent at a remote but well stocked lean-to shelter.

Evening was "special", listening to municipal elections results from radio. Quite positive outcome, overall.

A week ago I completed first 12 months of monthly outside sleeping in two linked one-nighters in South-Western Finland (Koskeljärvi & Vaskijärvi). Total was 43, happily.

Once again was so good to get out and soak in early spring nature, with lots of light and birds singing.
