Snowshoeing at lake Gisslaren in Roslagen.. Snowshoes are rarely the most efficient mode of transportation except in very steep or dense winter terrain, but it's always a fun way to move about.. Today it was -20 Celsius, more than 3 decimeters of powder snow and partially blue skies when the ice-fog wasn't dominating the sceneries.. I trudged along in a slow pace, partially on the lake where the ice was strong enough, partially up in the forest along a hiking trail.. A moose was moving ahead of me and showed clear signs of his presence in the snow, I saw him/her once at around 200 meters distance.. Had coffee and Christmas ham for lunch, but at this temperature, one wants to keep moving.. Total distance covered was only 8-10 kilometers in about 3 hours, but it was still quite a workout..
