The long range forecast for my Hardangervidda trip next week has got me wishing for all kinds of shiny new kit such as a nice lightweight summer sleeping bag and a minimalist insulated jacket. Unfortunately time and lack of availability are against me so I will make do with some heavier duty alternatives for the time being. One thing I will be doing is wearing shorts and learning to deal with the threat of ticks, something that I have never really considered before. I'd like a Tick Twister please. Water availability will not be a problem on this trip but protecting myself from the sun could be so I'd like some more sunscreen and my new Headsweats hat to turn up. Between now and the start of my trip we're also moving house so I'd like some more time as well please.
