 Spring in Dovrefjell Nationalpark! I admit it; I'm a little too grown up to really ENJOY wet feet! My last safari some hours ago was nice...dry feet, sun, nice German guests...and eight big muskox-boys! Yes, only boys! The girls are busy...giving birth to little muskox children! And like in the 50's in the human world, the fathers are not welcome to join the wonder of their childrens birth! We do not want to disturb the coming mothers and the newborn little ones, we visit the proud fathers...or the fathers that SHOULD have been proud. Really; I don't think they really care...or know... But they are reallynice guys...all eight of them. Wanna say hello? |

 Happy Alaskan Husky! They call me "Moskus-Terje", or in English; "Muskox-Terje"... But believe me; muskoxen are just a part of my life. This one year old Alaskan Husky is one of my colleagues! Our mascot! And we love him! As I love nature, reindeer, fox, wolverine, moose, birds, flowers - and muskox! They all have their place - and their job. Like this dog. He takes care of us - or at least THINKS he does - he makes us laugh, makes us wonder... He is just GREAT! When you come to visit us, try to see human, nature, animal life, plant life as ONE. Learn from it, and say hello to our Alaskan Husky. As a part of it. THEN join me on a muskox safari! |

 Quiet...silent...lonly... Our friends from all over the world have left us. Not because they don't like it here. But they have things to attend to; children start school again, bosses want their workers back... Life continues. And one of the most underpopulated places in Europe is once again...well...underpopulated! Or is it really? When we talk about people; yes. But life also continues in the National Park. Muskox, reindeer, hare, fox, ptarmigan... And not even hundreds of tons with snow can cover small, nearly teasing signs of life UNDER this cold, silencing, freezing, white, beautiful carpet! Want to experience it? Why not join me? I would like company. This country is maybe the lonliest place in Europe also... |

Happy children!
Would YOU have placed your child on a Norwegian mountain hill, 20 degrees below zero, no food, windy.... Probably not. But theese five beauties seemed content. Happy actually. And they are all younger than one year, born May or June last year! But of course; they have the second warmest wool in nature (number two after the alpacca), and they have parents and relatives to act as wind shields when it is TOO bad. The picture is taken last winter. At the end of January... Freezing! But also a mighty, POSITIVE experience! No wonder I am "sold" to Sunndalsfjella and Dovrefjell National Park. To the mountains...and the musk ox. Join me! Its March! Spring! And very soon SUMMER! I promise you a day you will carry in your heart for the rest of your life...or untill the next time you have lunch with the largest sheep in the world... |

Fragile...
Lots of people are skiing in our mountains now. And more to come...
They enjoy white mountains, snow everywhere, maybe distant reindeer, even a muskox group... Magnificent!
And yet; let's give some thoughts to the small, uninteresting, stiff, dead stuff sticking up over the snow surface...
You left the civilisation some hours ago. Tired, little angry with a friend or a colleague, tired in your mind 'cause it was to crowded when you were shopping....
Then you suddenly find yourself in a place on earth where such daily problems don't exist. Theese small, stiff stalks kind of tell you. "What's the big deal!" they say. Leave it! Concentrate on days to come! One thing I like with my lovely mountains is the eternal feeling you get. I've been walking in theese mountains for decades. Nothing has really changed here. In long or short terms. What was here 30 years ago still looks the same. What I found yesterday is unchanged.
To find a place where things are unchanged, predictable, like it was last time I was here. Like it probably was a hundred years ago...That pleases me... Slows down my mind...
