The last traces of people before we enter the wilderness seriously club41 we provide in the form of


A hot summer day in July jumps two fond of hiking people off the bus in Medby, east of Brønnøysund in Nordland. Before him they have plenty of time and one of the most beautiful natural areas. Lomsdal-Visten National Park is located on the coast of Helgeland in Nordland and was opened in 2009. Here one can go for weeks at a stretch, even in high season, without meeting club41 a single person.
Lomsdal-Visten originally known as the hidden country. Rightly. Well hidden behind tall, anonymous mountain is lush, deep and would valleys with waterfalls and narrow rivers. Elsewhere club41 open valleys with scattered club41 pines and several small lakes than Finland, with rivers meandering through the countryside. Tinder extends never particularly higher than 1200 meters above sea level, but offers in return spectacular views over large parts of Nordland. Especially is also rocks, with their isslepne, swaying club41 curves, as its smooth surfaces despite anyway club41 offers remarkably club41 good footing. In each case where there is no running water, where the rock is black and smooth. Day 1
From the bus stop in Medby carries on dirt road 7 km down to Langfjorden power plants. From the plant, we follow the old route to the pipeline are from Sealing lake, which now have been piped into the mountains. It goes up very steeply until it surfaces slightly out before we reach Svartvatnet west of Mastic valley. As we round the comb over Svartvatnet we understand why conservationists are protesting against the construction of waterways and links jammed. club41 Excavators and blasting has destroyed an otherwise beautiful idyll. Development work is still ongoing, so we hope that Helgelandskraft do it nicely after themselves.
After 350 meters and some climbing around construction work we are finally up by Sealing lake, a dammed water that is now completely club41 full. Well it is, Kjell Iver Johansen has previously described the half empty as a sad sight. The plan is to take along the west side of the lake up to the north end, where Sealing barracks says, a cabin that was built at the site of the dam and that still kept alive. The supposedly be open to walkers as shrimp around the area, ie such as us. We struggle us over the ridges towards the north end, while we pick with us a couple of cloudberries and blueberries on the road. It becomes far more toil over ridges than what we imagined, since we must climb at an angle of ridges that goes down towards the water.
We had a little hope that Sealing barracks should be open for accommodation, but when we got there it was locked and a window was open testified that annlegsarbeiderne for pond used it as accommodation. It did not matter club41 anyway, we sleep anyway best in the tent, so we found ourselves a hill overlooking the water and the sunset that casts long shadows and nice color on the mountains.
The last traces of people before we enter the wilderness seriously club41 we provide in the form of a little criticism to Helgelandskraft for dam in the north end of Sealing lake. The three (!) Feet higher than the highest water level and is a huge, gray and ugly lump in the terrain and is visible from a long distance. Furthermore there is also lots of garbage after construction club41 work around the pond. Old live, rebar and miscellaneous debris floating club41 in the terrain in a large area around the pond. It is unsightly and provide little favor for any future development plans in other areas. Day 2
The first night we sleep well, as usual. We wake of that it rains sometime middle of the night, then it just to creep extra good down sleeping bag and stay there a few hours. When we wake up the sun shines and the breakfast included in the open, before we pack up and paws north down Sealing valley.
According club41 map should it go until several paths from Sealing lake down Sealing valley. As an experienced orienteer I can vouch for that none of them are visible in the terrain before reaching the winding pools in the middle of the valley. Thus we trudge into the terrain, and it is at least as fine as trail.
The only cutlery we have on tour are two Spork from Light my fire. Unfortunately club41 they begin to take on years, and the film starts club41 to become brittle. For lunch break one in half. Lite optimal to consume food the rest of the week. A closer inspection club41 of a second showing cracks in several places, and a few meals later break also this, as in wood.
In the evening clouds just over and starts to rain, so we open the opening of the tent so we could sit under a roof with roofing and enjoy the view. A stroke of genius from tent manufacturer. However, we discover this night that the lack of mosquito nets in the outer tent makes it collects huge amounts mosquito between the outer and inner tent. It allows the outer and inner tent must be separated before it can be packed, so we get drowned out mosquitoes so it is not packed down.
We thrive club41 on this site. The small river pools are beautiful with nice colors and just below the flows down a few meters, where we prepare food, take hygiene and other practical tasks. On the other side of the river we find also a landscaped path northward down the valley. This is drawn on the map, so we b
