6 day: Finishing! Today was my last day of hiking and I managed to reach the fjord, where I expect a boat to pick me up in about 3h! I have done this hike 10y ago and I even remember some of the landscapes, especially cpsime of the nice waterfalls! But this year there is much more snow in the mountains and the final steep snowfield could be very tricky in foggy weather! I didnt find the best route today but I managed to build steps with my shoes into the 45 degree slope! So finally it worked! These slopes are very difficult and dangerous with a heavy backpack and if they are more icy than today! But having lost about 7kg I am now feeling very comfortable with a backpack of maybe 37kg! 45kg tough is close o my comfort level! In august in Peru I will start ith a very heavy backpack as I dont want to hire mules who are sometimes not so easy to deal with! So I am enjoying the last hours here watching some ducks and seabirds in the fjord! Though rainfall it is a very idyllic life here! Hope to reach Isafj�rdur by boat and taxi late this evening! Tomorrow then a relaxing day in the hot pools of Reykjavik, by very far my favorite swimming pool in the world!

A great week!!!
