#bikepacking trip, day #2. The weather forecast was showing rain all day, but it eluded us until the afternoon - and we're grateful for that! We reached Norway's biggest lake, Mjøsa, and also its most expensive diving tower (unfortunately we didn't take a dip as it was pouring at the time). 97km.

#bikepacking trip, day #3. First day with good weather - sun and 20°C. We climbed to 800m above sea level, mostly on gravel and unpaved roads. But I made a route planning error and we ended up doing 2km of hike-a-bike through a forest, at least half of it being closer to a bog than a forest. The rain finally caught up with us in the evening, but by that time we had set up our tent somewhere along the Åsta river. 74km.

#bikepacking trip, day #4. We originally planned to stay at around 900m altitude, but the rainy weather and the fact that we ran out of gas (which meant no proper meals on the original route almost the entire day) made us decide to head towards a nearby valley and set up the tent there. 68km.

#bikepacking trip, day #5. A beautiful sunny day with no rain, so we decided to cross one of the mountain passes. The approximately 1000m ascend was tough, but the landscape at the top and the following descent made it all worth it. Having solved the gas situation, we had a nice warm dinner on the shore of the Atna river and set up the tent in the forest. 81km.
