2015 is history, and new adventures lurk in 2016. Would be cool to see some of your pictures from last years adventures 🙂
Im a caveman and have no trips to a pub last year, but countless trips in the wild. Here is some pics from some of them.

First fishing trip of 2015, ice on the water has not gone yet... Lets just say that wading in this water makes some parts of your body shrink 🙂 Forgot the coffee, so we had to drink hot water to keep the spirit up.... Never forget coffee!! 🙂

From a one week hunting trip on a island way out in the ocean up north. At 71° North to be exact. My family used to live here before all got burned down during ww2, so we own some land here and its a prima hunting/fishing spot. Boring to fish here, its like shooting fish in a barrel. You'll get fish on every single cast, so not that exiting fishing here but its easy to get food atleast... There are two predators here, hunters and eagles 🙂

Awesome post jorn! What a gorgeous country you have! I would love to come to visit Scandinavia some day. Art and architecture are nice, but I'm happiest out in the wild too. What amazing views you have to enjoy, and some fine sporting too it seems. I've always had the impression that people your area really do care about the earth and appreciate it's natural beauty and work to preserve the more traditional outdoors sports and activities. Thanks so much for sharing. I am terrible at documenting my adventure with photos, but maybe I can get a few from my buddies from our fall backpacking trip.
