In end of June we went on a packraft and wild camping trip with our happy friends Melina and Mikael. A really nice overnight trip packrafting in the creek called Jarrebäcken which flows into the big lake Karats west of Jokkmokk.
We had a really nice evening, finding a really beautiful campsite in old virgin forest where we set up our giant tent with plenty of space for all 4 of us and our 2 border collies. We made a campfire and did some outdoor cooking with tasty and easy made camping food.
Next day we packed up and paddled home in the rain. A very nice packrafting trip with lots of laughter among good friends.
So welcome back to the channel. Today we're going out on a small packraft trip.
We're actually just going out camping having a nice dinner and tomorrow we hike back home.
One of the reasons why we don't stay longer is because it's going to start raining heavy
tomorrow. So we will use the good weather tonight and we're going to follow a small creek where we
have beavers and maybe moose and yeah we'll see. With me on this tour is Stina of course and our
two border colleagues Johnny and Annie. And we also have Mick and Melly from Stockholm that
follow us. They are staying in Jokkmokk now and working for the whole summer. So they can work on
distance. Do you say that? We'll see. You have seen them on videos from dogsled tours and
packraft tours before so they very often come to Jokkmokk. Now we will fill up air in the boats
and packing the boats. And we have a little bit problem because we don't have the normal
lightweight tent with us. We have a very very big tent. You will see that later.
And that tent don't really fit into the boats. Are you happy? Very happy. Are you happy with
the boat? Yeah I'm really happy. Is Stina happy? What? Happy. Happy and hungry.
People start getting hungry. This is hangry. This will be a very nice trip. Very romantic and nice.
Nice. Yes really nice. So we actually have a kind of issue with the mosquito here.
If you look they are really all around and they eating on Annie and eating on us.
Now I've been flying drone and oh they're really everywhere.
But into the boat again. We need to be on the water. But when you are on the creek like this
in the delta area. Welcome to the place where most of the mosquitoes get born. Yeah let's go.
It's so beautiful. You want to film all the time. Of course you see so many moments that you want
to capture with the camera. Now I think we have soon find ourselves a camping spot.
And I'm super hungry so getting up the tent and make some food.
Now we're going to see when Mellie. Okay what is the technique?
The technique is called make it as slowly as possible. As slowly as possible. And here is
the husband filming her. Yeah. She made it. Thank you for your help. She made it. Yeah. And you are happy.
Mellie and me are the cooking team but we're so hungry so it doesn't go very fast.
We have just eaten candy. Yeah. Candy guys will be disappointed.

Chicken piece. Oh it starts raining. And what are we eating Stina? You are eating. I'm eating. You're

And now my food is ready and it starts raining so we had to
slinging in the things into the tent quickly.
Now it stopped raining. This is the romantic eating. This is how it is in the wild.
We are youtubers and we're sitting here nicely and eating. Soon the food is cold actually.
So now we have fire and we're making tea and coffee. And Anni is really happy that we don't
have thunderstorm. She's relaxed and she's walking around and looking around in the surrounding and
now she's laying there with the fire. Nice. Warm and nice. Finally in the sleeping bag
and it starts raining. Yeah. And Anni is not scared. Hey Anni. And Mickey is going out and take a swim.
Yes it's time now. Time for the swim. Bye bye. Bye bye. And Mellie? Yes. Happy? Happy. It's a big tent.
We actually can have a circus in here. It's a huge tent.
Good morning. Morning. Good morning. You slept well? Really well. Really really well. In this huge huge tent.
And Anni and Jonny is already outside. Are they starting the fire?
So what's for breakfast today? Oh we have a big variation. So from all other tours we are going
to have egg and bread and tea and coffee. We try to change every time. And what is that?
Oh what? Is that breakfast? No that was cookies. I think that's not for. I think it's
Mellie who had these cookies. Okay. I didn't. Is the cookies yours? Is it your cookies here?
What? What? What cookies? I don't eat cookies. She's gone. So we just started eating and then
it started raining. So then. Good timing. Good timing. Now I had to go into the tent.
With all the gear and stuff again. How are you Stina? Panic eating.
Panic eating. Are you panic eating again? Always panic eating.
If you see a kind of pattern here with all. If you look back in the videos where Stina is
you will see a pattern with food and Stina.
It's busy here with the line into the tent. A queue line. A queue line.
Now when everybody's in the tent. It's not raining. It's not raining. Yeah.
Look at Jonny. Poor guy.
So Mickey's backpack is 88 liters and it almost fit one tent.
Big tent. Is it time to take up the boats?
