I LIVE HERE

Bye snow-scooter to Hilmar Nøis,s old main station Fredheim at Svalbard. A fascinating part of Norway. This was late in may, but the ice at sea was rather safe so driving condition was very good. It was amasing for me visiting Fredheim, wich was Hilmar,s home for almost 50 year.  Hilmar stayed over the winter at Svalbard 38 times - he is no. 1. He started building of station Fredheim  i the early twenties - more information on Svalbardpages.
 

It has been so many nice expeditions during many year. Togheter with brother Wernwer it has been both fishing and hunting at summertime and wintertime.
BIPPAS, ÆRTEBEL, RØYKSKARET, GULAS, GIRUNOIAVE, KUDALEN, VOUMA, MOSKAN, ASLAK, ANJA, HØGSKARET, LILLE-JÆRTA, STORE-JÆRTA, LANGFJELLET, SKRUBBEN. This is names wich reminds me about so many nice trips.

From about 1965 vi started expeditions around the mountains here. Our "Guide", uncle Paal was a good teacher. Paal had several depot in the mountain, with salt (for the fish)and oil (so he easier could make a fire).
I will never forget when Paal and I came down from the mountains, and to sea level near a river. We started fishing for salmon, but there was big whales (brugde) near the landside, and I hooked one of them - you cannot imagine this experience.
"Uncle Paal" was a "mountain-man", and he learned me a lot - thanks to him.

The last 10 year moosehunting has been given priority. The well known trich to wissle before shooting works, I can asure you about that !
