Overnighter with a View - Sleeping under the Mere Sky

  • My first overnighter for almost exactly one year! As last time I went to Bjuröklubb at the Bothnian bay, Bottenviken for some magnificent views over the still frozen sea. The evening was quiet, and the morning filled with the sound from thousands of migrating birds. A great time to be out!
    The sleeping bag is my old Western mountaineering ultralite. The temperature was -1°C at the coldest, so I stayed warm and nice. The sleeping air mat is Sea to summit ether light, with the Z-pad on top.

    There is nothing quite like the feeling of the first rays of sunlight warming your face on a crisp morning while wrapped up in a sleeping bag. This film does an excellent job of portraying it. Absolutely brilliant work, as always! I'm happy to see you were able to get out for an overnighter again.

    Hi Erik, I watched you video again, today. Amazing scenery and experience to sleep under open sky on the end of winter. I live in Toronto, Canada and am familiar with cold and quiet winter nights up north - except for some birds that spend winter here. I love seeing you making your cup of coffee and giving it a thumb up!
    We have not see you post a new video for a while, I hope that you are doing ok, and I wish you all the best.

    That bag for inflating the mat is cool. I always inflate mine with my mouth, but maybe I should get such a bag as well. Looks handy and after a long days hike inflating the mat with my mouth always makes me feel a bit dizzy. 🙂
