Day 9 | Vuonatjviken + 7km

We set out at 10 am with the goal of catching the 6 pm ferry. The day begins with an easy forest walk, not too rocky. Paul kindly volunteered to do the rowing as we came to the first rowing spot. 

Later on, there's a steep climb, and my pack felt incredibly heavy after the resupply. I breathed a sigh of relief when I reached a plateau where my feet could regain their speed. I followed Nick, who was a bit ahead, acting as a pacemaker.

Taking a quick break and enjoying a snack on the other side of the Fjäll, I had the pleasure of watching some cheerful birds as they shook their feathers. With plenty of time before the boat was due, I embraced the chance to take it easy, relishing the moment instead of rushing.

We ended up being approximately two hours early for the boat, but the bright sun was shining, and I discovered a sheltered spot behind a cabin. We all took the opportunity to cook our meals, planning to continue walking for another 7 kilometers after the boat ride.

I decided to prepare a ramen bomb, given the limited options in the supermarket. There was a moment of uncertainty about whether to cook now or later, but ultimately, I chose to cook at this moment, as I expected to arrive at the camp late.
