While waiting for the last section of the road to North Cape to open, we hiked on the neighborhood mountains.
The road is so stunning there! 🇳🇴😍🚐🌨❄🌬

Giving the Arctic back its ice
"On November 18, 2023, I filled an ice cube machine with meltwater from the North Pole and returned the cubes to the Arctic Ocean (Båtsfjord, Northern Norway)."

The project was realized during the artists fellowship at the Research Institute for Sustainability (RIFS) Potsdam 2023/24, where she spent a year exploring the representation of the Arctic. The meltwater was provided to her by the journalist and author Birgit Lutz. Her journey was exclusively by public transportation, such as train, bus and ferry, with the exclusion of airplanes and cruise ships. The ice cube machine was powered by a solar battery (charged in advance with Westphalian sunlight)."

After a long day hiking between boulders and jumping from rock to rock, I was finally awarded with this view right before I descended from this fjell. During my two-month solo hike in the Gaissene area, Norway, in 2024.

After two hours of waiting time on the 890 to go to Berleväg, the convoy is cancelled due to terrible conditions up on the mountains.
Well... let's try again tomorrow! 🇳🇴❄🌬🌨🏔

Misty Storelva in Norway, August 2023. We had to cross this river on a cold, wet day. Luckily, we found a shallow—but wide—spot to get across. If we hadn’t, we might’ve had to take a pretty long detour, possibly even retrace our old tracks back toward civilization—something I always try to avoid.
