It was in the beginning of August and I was on my way to mountains west of the village Arjeplog. The Sun was shining on the white snow at the mountaintops as I drove thru the little village of Jäckvik, it was beautiful scenery. I reach the parking at the beginning of the trail to Sieldutjåkk and Mavas. It was a steep climb up to the mountain where there where some small lakes. I tried to catch one of the chars that where there, but they were very small.
It's a bit fantastic to think that some Arctic Char where trapped in this little lake, about 6000 years ago. When the big ice that covered most of the north of Europe melted away.

It was a bit chilly up on the top and after a small whisky that helped restore a bit of warmth. I started the climb down to the Sieldutjåck valley. There is lovely little cabin open for everyone. It is located where the track crosses the river over a little bridge.

After some food and a warm cup of coffee I walked up to the lake where Siuldutjåckk starts. Trying to catch some of the brown trout that where rising in the water above the rapids, I only managed to catch some very small trout, before the night swept in and it was to dark to fish anymore.
