The music in the last minute is as an ode to this incredibly awesome scenery. You were a lucky man to experience that beauty with its glaciers, its white-clouded blue skies reflected in the lakes and fjords. The early-autumn colours, brilliant in the sun, magnificent ! Ich freue mich für dich, Jarl ! Welch eine wunderschöne Erlebnis !

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Thank you Regine!

[@azclaimjumper]

When I see a new video of your appear, I fix a meal, fix some hot flavored coffee, then sit down in front of my computer so I can watch & enjoy every second.
Thank you for speaking English in what little dialog you speak. Thank you for taking so much time to film & edit your real-life outdoor adventures to share with us. So much backtracking, to retrieve your photographic equipment & with a heavy pack on your back.
15 minutes into this video - which Brand/model grey puffy jacket are you wearing?
I love seeing all that clean water, waterfalls, snowpack, lakes & a part of the world I can enjoy, thanks to you.
Mother Nature was most kind to you during this outdoor adventure; you have managed to capture the very best & most scenic that she has created.
32 minutes into this video - what were those animals with horns?
I'm riveted to my chair in front of my computer while watching every second of each & every video.
Yes, I "liked" your video; am a long-time subscriber.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada.

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Thank you always! I probably have an Arcteryx Cerium down jacket, and the animals are reindeer, Rudolph in person🙂

Absolutely breathtaking landscapes, and as always, phenomenal cinematography from you, Jarl! What camera do you use for filming your videos, or are you using your iPhone? I'm in Idaho, a few hours away from the Sawtooth Wilderness Area (approximately 3.5 hours). I watch your videos on my own, but I've recently introduced my son to your UA-cam videos and we watch them together when we have lunch. He's caught backpacking fever from me and has been going with me on hiking and backpacking trips now for the past two years. Fair weather and happy trekking to you!

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Thank you again! Glad your son watches with you! I was in the Sawtooths a few years ago, up and over the Kramer divide, Alice, Toxaway lake etc in early season snow, wonderful place

Hei Jarl, can you tell me which route you have picked? Any name for that or an idea from where i can start? :)

[@NorwegianXplorer]

This loop was started from Leirvassbu, you can also start from Spiterstulen or take the boat in to Memurubu from Gjendesheim

[@mesquitoful]

Hei Jarl. Fantastisk video som vanlig. Can you share some thoughts about the precautions you take when hiking alone and and not using trekking poles? That looks like some really rough territory and a lone hiker is one fall away from a very bad day.

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Thank you, trekking poles will not keep you safe, an ice axe might if you where on snow or ice. I trust my legs more than I would trust trekking poles.

[@mesquitoful]

Ok. It’s a very personal choice, I guess. I’ve found one pole to be a great help in steep terrain, two poles to be kind of a pain in the ass.

[@NorwegianXplorer]

@@mesquitoful Yeah, most people use them these days

[@vishino]

Hi, I've just been there, but in heavy rain, had better luck in Langsua and Rondane. I wonder what was your backpack weight without the camera gear?

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Thats a shame, glad you got better weather in Rondane and Langsua. I have no idea about the weight without camera gear.

[@vishino]

@@NorwegianXplorer a with it? :) i'm asking as I got too heavy bp and suffered a bit from it, wondering what weights people get for solo hikes

[@NorwegianXplorer]

@@vishino My last trip in Muddus it was 12 kg with camera gear and 6 days of food, I think I am usually at around or below 15 kg for a week

[@LMoneL]

Can you drink the water directly from streams in Jotunheminen, or did you bring some kind of filter? I'm going hiking there in august, but after researching a bit I'm confused if it safe to just drink the water as it is.

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Yes it is safe, but dont drink where the cows are. I have never filtered in Norway. Drink from running streams and not stagnant pools

[@NorwegianXplorer]

Nobody filters water in Norway

[@user-nature-lover]

Hi,
What camera do you use for the recording of your camping? The videos are so crisp and clear!

[@NorwegianXplorer]

You’ve stuck with that Marmot Tungsten UL 1P tent for a couple years now and have used it in some pretty severe conditions. What’s your overall impression? Likes & dislikes?

[@NorwegianXplorer]

I like it, it is not a very solid tent, but it is cheap and lightweight, havent had the need to replace it with anything else. I do however have other tents for when the forecast is bad.

[@SummitSeeker546]

@@NorwegianXplorer I got the Plex Solo tent from Z Packs for a rigorous trip requiring an Ultralight setup. Great tent, light weight but it has its issues. After using that tent I realized how much I really liked the Marmot tent. It’s relatively lightweight, easy to setup/tear down, has an air vent to minimize condensation issues, free standing (easy to move/adjust & clean debris out of tent), double walled (retains more warmth), when fly is velcro secured to tent poles and with 2 guyout points it is bomb proof, fly material doesn’t sag, relatively roomy for a 1P, has a large vestibule area, and has a small footprint (fits into tighter tent spots). My only complaint is I wish the mesh didn’t go so low on the side opposite the door. On cold windy nights it can be a bit breezy inside the tent. Other than that I’ve been quite pleased with it for shoulder season and summer usage. What’s on your agenda for 2023?
