After cutting myself bad I couldn´t work. Being home sucked so I decided to go
hike to my parents home, 25miles away.

First obstacle in my way


Nothing the DFLE couldn´t take care of <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Second break


Noodles, this tasted like [censored] <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

Nice pics and places, Simon! Where are these?
But as a Spaghetti-Eater, what I can say about yours is just: BLEAH! :-)

When I finally fell asleep the was this roe dear making alot of noice, like barking. Lucky animal I was to tired to go after it with my knife hehe
04.00AM a blackbird woke me up, sitting in a tree near me screaming like h*ll and refused to fly away. I hated that bird soo much...

Camp. Sleepingbagcover is homemade by me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />


Walking in the morning


Parents house, at last!!!


It was a nice trip. I will do it again soon.


But next time I´ll having better socks, walked 10miles with a blister under my foot.
And company! Hiking alone isn´t fun <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

michelangelo it´s in Sweden, south of Gothenburg. Yeah that spaghetti wasn´t so good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Normaly almost any food tastes realy good when your eating out in the woods but there are exception <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

The reason I couldn´t work last week

My finger vs Busse FBM, finger lost

OOOHH AHHH!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Man that cut looks really bad. Ahhh.... Hope it heals quickly and well.

Though, glad you could do a little relaxing in the woods. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I accidentally cut my right thumb nearly off with my TOPS. It wasn't as bad as yours, I only got three stitches.

But, goodness, does that cut look bad. Maybe I should take the FBM out of your hands for awhile. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Take my FBM? Take away my reason to live?!?! Are you crazy??? dumb question <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> (just kidding, or am I...?)

It´s not healing fast enough hehe

Simon, I would like to buy a Puukko knife: any suggestions besides the most common brands (Helle, Roselli etc.?). Regards.

Nice Hike Simon! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

And bad cut. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the pics, looks like a real nice place to hike. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Nice pics Simon. Can I suggest a pair of running shoes in place of boots instead of changing the type of sock you wear? I don't know if you wear boots hiking or not. Too many people feel that their footwear needs to survive long after they drop dead. How often do you get blisters walking around in running shoes? I switched several years ago and have been blisterless since. The combination of air flow and light weight have been great. No more sore legs or back. If you are wearing boots for support your pack is too heavy.

nice pictures Simon <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> bad cut! how did the FBM do it?

lighthiker, I've been looking at hiking shoes/lighter footwear, your suggestions?
