The summer is fading away, new snow is appearing on the hills round Voss and a new season approaches!
Right now it feels like it has been raining since June, sun seems a luxury once indulged in, back in June, but overall I would say it has been a great summer. Our rivers have been feed well most of the summer by good snow pack from last winter, but then, just as we thought low water was in, bang, 0 - hero and every things in flood!
In the last month the local river around Voss have gone from low water to full flood about 4 times and counting. The Raundal river goes has gone from 13 cumecs to over 200 in an evening of rain, then back to 50 or so 24 hours later. Needless to say this keeps you on your toes and keeps you guessing where you should head next.

Its all Over, I had been presenting a Expedition show at various locations all last week, and have just made it back to the other end of the country. It's been a funny journey from Southampton, up to the lakes, down to Liverpool, up to Scotland, over to Fort William and back down here again. It was allot of fun, and great to catch up with folk up there, I would like to thank everyone who came to the shows and of course all the folk who organized the show venues!

Virtual Expedition scouting? I came across this little number whilst looking for maps for a planned expedition and I was blown away!
Gone are the days of wondering what the valley will be like, where the rapids will be and if there will be a way out of deep canyons, you can 'virtually scout' using a FREE download program from GOOGLE EARTH.
