A nice quick walk from Ulsteinvik. The location was in a section of moorland just north of the main road from Ulsteinvik to Hareid. AshleyMorton got there earlier than he'd expected (about 15:00), so ended up sitting on a rock for an hour, reading the Economist. Dedicated to the principles of geohashing, but not really expecting to find anyone else at the site, he brought a deck of cards, and played solitaire. Lost both times. Damn.
 The morning dawned humid and overcast. |
 Supplies were purchased. |
 Nice little creek that the initial path passed by. |
 Up the hill... |
 Then the path looked like it was getting a little more rustic. |
 Until I realised that there was a light fixture on the side of the path - turns out this path is a lit trail for wintertime cross-country skiing. Huh. |
 Now we're off trail for the last 400m or so. The little creek doesn't look like much, until I realise that there's one every 6 feet. This place was not so great the day after a rainfall! |
 Okay, made it! This looks Northwest. |
 North. |
 Northeast. |
 East. |
 Down. |
 Oops, lost the plot there - Uh... South-ish. |
 Played Solitaire - lost. |
 Same thing. That's the map of my island. |
 You can tell how close I am to the road. What you can't tell is how wet my feet are. |
 I'm pretty sure this qualifies as "stupidly grinning" - That's me. (AshleyMorton) |
 So does this, but this time I'm wearing a Norwegian sweater. |
