Magnar,

dit is gewoonweg prachtig. Wat een wonderbaarlijke selectie planten...ik moet heel nodig eens je prachtige land bezoeken. Dank je om deze hier te delen.

Dank u om ons mee te nemen op jouw bergtocht Magnar !!
Wat een volledig beeld van de vegetatie en de omgeving ! o.a. de Salixjes zijn uniek en de Dryas velden .... 
Ik had het geluk om Noorwegen al drie keer te bezoeken, maar ik was nog nooit zo hoog Noordelijk als waar jij woont.
Ik moet dringend eens terugkeren en daar werk van maken !

[Magnar Aspaker]
