First step for a hike: get there. We showed up to the airport and after almost checking one of our packs to the wrong airport, everything went on the belt and disappeared into the bowels of the airport.

In they go!In they go!

Once we were on the flight, night quickly came, and brought with it a great sight: the northern lights!

So coolSo cool

A brief stop over at BOO airport for a beer, some dinner, and a new place, and then we were on our way to Leknes!

SpookySpooky

The three of us arrived in to Leknes and retrieved .. two bags. Uh-oh. Maria's pack never showed up. After a brief conversation with the lone attendant, we learned that her pack probably left Oslo (but they weren't sure) and that it might be on the first flight in the morning (but they weren't sure).

After a long drive to the cabin for the night, we hit the hay since we'd need to get up early to drive all the way back to retrieve the pack .. assuming it shows up.
