In reply to JJEkland:
> I'm looking at routes that cover the huts in Norway, but it would be great to camp also. Just thinking now if it's even going to be possible to hike through the snow? Last year it was at 30cm and dropped a few centimeters a day roughly and by may 11th, had gone down to 5cm. But the year before that, it stayed around 40cm the whole time. Is this weather able to be hiked through?
not quite sure where you are talking about and what time of year there was only 30cm of snow? This year was a little lean to start with, but by Jan there was 50cm of snow even in the more southern mountainous areas of Norway/Sweden. The previous year many ski places were having to dig the snow out around their tows and fasten extra padding on the pylons etc.. because the snow level was higher than usual. It does consolidated through the season and especially after the bigger spring temps(march onwards) where you get plus by day, cold at night. But mid winter you can easily have a metre of loose snow, ask anyone who has fallen off their skis!! The normal snow fall/depth is between 1 and 2m.
If you try to go for a walk mid winter etc.. then don't take too much food, as I expect you'll go for a few km, camp, freeze, then head home the next morning, there are reasons the ski area doesn't open in Kiruna until late Feb. If you want to travel and enjoy the experience, then learn to ski, travel fairly light and hut to hut it.
