Yet another weekend at Lake Gagga.
Start odo.
It's a beautiful sunny Sunday at noon. We're preparing for a ride in the sun.
Fresh snow on the deck. Makes up for a great day of riding with the family.
The lake covered with fresh powder.
Ready to go, the girls are riding in the Nila.
Miss Wader (wifey) is ready to go.
We're out camping at a lake 15 miles up north from Lake Gagga.
Heidi's chilling in the sun.
Girls are fishing for Arctic Char or Trout.
Amanda.
Linnea.
Lake Čeggujávri.
Amanda cough an Arctic Char
She's a proud as any angler.
She wouldn't kiss it though.
Back at the cabin, loading up for a evening ride on the lakes.
We bring our Persian Kitties to the cabin, we also take them out for a ride, our cats love ride in the Nila.
We rode north to Lake Ruššajávri.
Kids playing on the ice.
It's a bit windy on the lake.
Mount Lemmivarre, very rocky terrain, but great fun for a skilled rider like myself
The ice is crystal clear and about 3-4 feet or 1 meter thick.
I decided to ride the sled back home instead of towing it in the trailer.
Up in Mount Lemmivarre, overlooking the Lakselv walley and Mount Merdávárri in the distance on the other side of the walley. Mount Divggagáissa in the far distance, a 3000 feet or 900 meter tall mountain wall.
Back home. Left the sled outside. Then we got dumped at nice.....

Me and my daddy went out this Saturday morning to haul some fire wood back home from the forest. My mother and the girls came with us to keep us company.
On our way back to my fathers house with a load of wood.
My father is 74 years old and still going strong.
We have a Rekka tow sled specially constructed for hauling heavy loads on narrow trails, this sled will always follow in the track behind the sled even when driving S-turns thru the woods, any other kind of sled would get stuck into the trees.
My daughter Amanda, Jenny and Linnea on the trail we made to be able to tow heavy loads of wood.
My mother and my girls lit a campfire, they had hot dogs, hot chokolate and soft drinks.
My mother Jenny and my daughter Linnea playing in the meter deep snow.
We hauled a total of 15 sled loads of wood today, enough to keep both our houses and our cabin warm for the next winter.
On Sunday we went out into the mountain.
Outside my parents house, packing up getting ready to go.
Rear view back down the valley. A few miles from my parents house.
We rode out with our friends, we stopped by the trail waiting for them to catch up, here they come.
Wife Heidi's cousin Stein on his Ski-Doo Machz.
My cousing Fred-Arne on his Ski-Doo 1200 Renegade.
It's a nice day, some sledders stopped by us
We're blessed with good snow and great riding condition on the open plains.
Mount Gárdevárri in the distance.
On Lake Gárdejávrit. Our God daughter Carmen Kristin.
Camping close to the lake on the slope at the foot of the Moutain.
Kids are playing on the slope.
Pretty cool canyon. I have ridden up there on my turbo sled on spring snow, it's crazy steep and you need a lot of speed to get up there.
Overlooking the camp site.
I saw a track on the side of the hill, of course I had to break trail above it hahahahaha boys will be boys, always.
Other families out on the lake fishing.
My cousin Fred-Arne.
Our sleds.
My cousins wife Synnøve and their son Sander.
My cousing eating stock reindeer, salted and dried meat fron reindeer are a tradition among us Sámi people. Matter of fact in our region it's everybodies tradition to eat this kind of food when out camping. It's damn good, remember to bring water or beverages to keep the thirst away
Amanda is fishing on the lake hoping to catch a trout.
But no luck today, the trout would not bite.
We'll somebody else caught one, nothing big LOL.
She has the patient to become a great angler. She kept trying for a long time even tho she didn't catch anything.
She finally gave up. We're packing up ready to ride back home.
WOW conditions are perfect.
Last ride down the hill. Linnea and Amanda are enjoying themselves.
The famous SRX 700 is still around. Notice the number on the side of the sled. This guy is actually a drag racer on the trail with his race sled. He races the stock 800 class in the nationals, his results are pretty decent against the newer sleds. They have a few cups on their shelf.
On our way back home.

Friday Easter.
We're up at Lake Vuolit Ranssajavrit.
Back at my parents house at Engmyr, my kids out walking on the frozen marshland.
More fronzen marshland.
Saturday Easter.
Up at Lake Vuolit Kareljavrit.
Late in winter people put up tents to stay out for the weekend, it's an old tradition that many still live by.
People camp wherever they find shelter from the wind.
On the lake, weather is OK but it's blowing havily.
We're having a great time amid the wind. Temperature are just above freeze so it ain't cold.
Time for some downhill stunt piloting on the board.
The stunt pilots survived, now on the lake throwing snow at each other.
Going home. All my girls
My turbo sled did not get much love this easter either, family comes first.
Our trail sled.
Some of the wood we hauled a week ago.
The Rekka timber tow sled.

We made a few snowmen and snowgirls.
Linnea building Lego inside our cabin.
I'm cleaning the deck.
Still snowing. Spring is late this year.
We're overlooking the trail on the lake, sledders out riding.
Packing up for a ride out north, back home that is. Wifey and the girls are driving the car back home, me I'm riding our sled and the Nila back home.
Lake Gagga. It's blowing quite a lot. Gail force winds.

It's May 4. It's been snowing at night and this morning, conditions are great. Temps are below freeze.
Outside my house.
Me and my friend Steinar trailered our sleds for 6 miles or 10 kilometers to Cáskil. Altitude at the end of the road is 1000 ft or 300 meters. Up here winter is still on full power, no melting to speak of and a lot of snow, conditions are as good as it gets for an ungroomed trail.
Overlooking the frozen Porsanger fjord.
Steinar on his 2012 RS Venture GT.
Up in the Luostejohka valley. Steinar's turf house. People still lived in houses like this one a 100 years ago. Cheap and easy to build. The traditional way, it's build from what you find in nature. This one is somewhat modern with a glass windows and a real production door. Modern madrasses.
The Venture.
The beast, my turbo sled.
We left some beverages for the summer season. It's pretty far from the nearest road, 30 miles or 50 kilometer at least. We dug it into a snow drift some distance from the turf house. It's not allowed to lock up the house so it's no good leaving anything of value inside, you gotta hide it outside somewhere.
We're on the far side of the Gaissa mountain range, home is somewhere beyond the mountains in the distance.
Out on the trail, on our way back home.
Beautiful mountains
Up on the plains in between the mountains.
The Venture and the Beast.
A diffenret turf house. There's a lot of them in the forests surrounding the wasteland of the mountain plains. They come in handy if any survival situation occurs. I have been in them a lot over the years when weather has been to dangerous to ride in.
Not only cowboys; sledders do also ride into the sunset.
This canyon is called The Gates of Saint Peter, in Norwegian it's called Perleporten.
After the gate we climbed up to the top of a nearby mountain to get a this great view.
A few miles left.
The fences are there to keep the different reindeer herds from each other. It's a mess when 10000 reindeers from 2 herds mix together..... weeks of work, nobody wants that, except for the biggest herds out to steel someone elses smaller herd, unfortunately it happens from time to time. Stealing is very rare nowadays.
Steinar got stuck, but we managed to get him back out.
On the way down the mountain road I had to stop to shoot this gorgious view.

It's a mess when 10000 reindeers from 2 herds mix together..... weeks of work, nobody wants that, except for the biggest herds out to steel someone elses smaller herd, unfortunately it happens from time to time. Stealing is very rare nowadays.
Steinar got stuck, but we managed to get him back out.
On the way down the mountain road I had to stop to shoot this gorgious view.

Lots of people and sleds.
