My plans

I'd better tell everyone my plans so you don't wonder what has happened to me when you don't hear from me for a week or more. Tomorrow (Thursday, 29 June) I'm taking the train from Oslo to Otta, Norway (3.5 hour trip). I'm planning to leave some stuff that I don't need for my hiking trip in a locker at the Otta train station. Hopefully I can leave it there for a week or so. Then I'm catching a local bus (#565) that afternoon from Otta to Spiterstulen (via Lom). Spiterstulen is just a hut in Jotunheimen NP, perched right between the 2 highest peaks. I'm planning to camp near the hut for a couple nights and just hang out in the hut in the evenings. Depending on weather and other factors, I'll hike up the two peaks, Galdhopiggen (2469 m) and Glittertind (2452 m), on two consectutive days (Friday and Saturday possibly). So Sunday (July 2) I'll probably hike to another hut, possibly the Fannarakhytta hut, the highest hut in Norway, and do a few more hikes. I'm guessing I'll spend 5-7 days in the national park total before heading back down.

I might then head to the popular fjord, Geirangerfjorden, northwest of Jotunheimen NP. I should be able to email from that area. Eventually I'll make my way back to Otta, reclaim my stuff, and then head up to Trondheim or Bodo by train. Thats my plan for now anyways.

So parents, don't freak out please.
