Nahanni - IRL

By
Time to go. One month in Canada, most of it along the South Nahanni river. I expect to have the time of my life and a tall tale or two to tell when July is gone. Wish me luck :-)

By Jörgen Johansson

I have been hiking since my early teens, mostly solo. Right after the millenium I discovered ultra light backpacking and have been using, trying and adapting originally American techniques to Scandinavian tundra. The demands in that area are demanding and equal to the ones I have found in northern Alaska. About this I have written in a number of books. In Swedish the bestselling Vandra Fjäderlätt, in English the Smarter Backpacking series that you find on Amazon.
