This is the first backpacking trip of this first season of TGSHBT, and it is Part 1 of 3 of the 10 day Femundsmarka National Park backpacking trip on the border with Sweden. I start from Elgå and go up Sagbekkdalen/Saw Creek Valley, over to Revlingsjøan/Revling Lakes, cross the neck of Stor Svuku and go over to Kratltjønnan/Shrubbery Tarns, go off trail through bear territory past Voltjønnan and Midtrøsttjønnan and follow Sorfisktjønnan/Big Fish Tarns to Litlbuddhåen, strange names and hard to translate some of them. Femundsmarka is a pretty hard place to travel through once you reach the endless boulder plains where its bushwacking and climbing over huge boulders unless you are on trail. This is a very wild area and has a good population of bears and a huge population of reindeer. This was my first time in Femundsmarka and it ended up being an incredible beautiful trip!

Jarl, our viewing begins and how awesome these are going to be. Reading some of the previous comments, of which I dont normally do, I am blown away by the mutual amazement of your work, efforts and commitments to make these trips available for us to watch. We, your subscribers, are in "AWE". Just Loving it man!! Thank you!

Hey Jarl…looking good man! Some of us been waiting and it’s here. And the opening song…my favorite…it’s the right music for the mood of the mountain 🏔

Stunning place Jarl…can’t thank you enough for sharing your adventures with us…many blessings 🙏🏻

Stony fields, green meadows, rustling creeks, clouded blue skies, a multitude of lakes in which the scenery is reflected, hills and mountains, trees and grasses.... The kingdom of the reindeer .... I mainly enjoyed the quietness and peacefulness of this unspoilt nature. An exquisite and colourful 'Overture' of your "Scandinavian Symphony". I've great expectations about the next parts ! Thank you, Jarl ! And from here, in Flanders, I wish you many beautiful mornings and surprizing encounters on your trips in your magnificent homeland.

Another spectacular film. Really enjoying seeing the Norwegian terrain. The tent, the reindeer, the fishing 🎣 the beauty all captured on film. Thank you!

Beautiful. Thanks. The rugged immensity combined with the pace of foot steps...

Wonderful! The reindeer herd streaming by at sunset was just magical. "Keep up, Little One!" Looking forward to the rest of the adventure.

Beautiful scenes!

Can you spot the tiny reindeer kid? This is the video for the 10 day Femundsmarka NP and Rogen backpacking trip in Norway and Sweden, the first real backpacking video from the 25 episode "Grand Scandinavian Hiking & Backpacking Tour 2021". I am so excited to finally show the world this amazing summer of backpacking. I had a couple of herds of reindeer visit in my camp and they started fighting over food right by my tent…quite the experience! An epic 10 day trip and the start of the best summer of my life!
