What you can see from this high (or low :-), i.e. Tonefjellet (945m), when you look inland; what you can hear is overwhelming silence.

Me too

The silence. I can imagine being there, so quiet you can hear the sounds inside.

Really desolate. And wonderful ridges to trek. Perfect to regain ones sanity.

Re: Me too

I see you've been to the Svalbard Islands ?

Re: Me too

So far, I haven't been there, but I can really imagine it. The furthest I reached is the Arctic Circle, near the Lofoten Islands. It was a work trip, but I didn't want to leave. Lucky to see some wonderful Aurora.

Re: Me too

I was lucky to see the northern lights twice that September. As for the continent, I haven't seen the jagged peaks of the Lofoten but I've been to the Jotunheimen. I wonder why so few Britons go there – I guess Scotland's no worse.
