hiking trip to Sassendalen


After i came home from my first trip up here. My father got interested, so we came back this year for a father, son, dog trip on Svalbard.

Arrival on Svalbard

Back in Longyearbyen

Adventalen in nice autumn colors

Morpheus

the nice thing about not having a polar dog....a shepperd wants to protect rather than hunt reindeers

so a curious pub cam curiously closer to examine the strange fluffy animal (our dog)

End of Adventalen, even our dog enjoyed the landscape

A cold bath in Adventelva

some Polar bear tracks

Eskerflossen

And Sassendalen as a huge desert

awesome night sky colors of autumn Svalbard

First ice next to Sassenelva

A cosy evening at Sassenfjorden with a warm fire

Morpheus, completely fascinated by the sea. He watched the tides coming and going for hours

Back throug De geerdalen

father, son and dog


Overnight change on the last day, first ice on Adventalen

A new experience for our dog

Back in Longyearbyen: one night at Liv and one night on the Campingplace
