One more day to go.

Right now we are between late autumn and early winter. A few centimetre of snow and down to minus 10 c. But early evening there is a very fine colour west of The Canoe Center in Risviken. Still waiting for fine Ice on Västra Silen Lake.

The day after Christmas we got one cm of new snow. The ice in the the Canoe Bay is only a few centimetres thick and we can´t go out for fishing yet. The next couple of days it will be down to minus 20 so maybe there will be some fine ice. Went  yesterday around in Glaskogen to track wolf but nothing was seen. Last night there was two Deer just outside the house, I think looking for food. 

Not same presider as last year.

Santa Claus has some problems this year in Risviken at Nordmarken Canoe Centre. There is now snow so the sledge with the reindeer has to stay at home waiting for snow. But we have had problem before Year 2012 Santa came with his wife in a canoe but run into snow and cold weather. Nothing is normal now but we have to live with it. We can´t fight nature or order nature to do what we want, we have to accept it as it is.

So this year we wish all of our families, friends, guests a very Good Christmas and a Happy New Year. Santa  didn’t show up to collect Christmas cards.Sorry about that.

Shit happens!

Efter en tids dator abstinens så fungerar min PC igen. Det har varit tyst ett tag på både Facebook och vår Blogg, men nu innan jul kommer vi igång igen.
Bilden visar den saknade vintern vid Kanot Centret i Risviken, ingen is, ingen snö ännu,

men det kommer säkert.

Lätt att hitta.

Ibland blir man positivt överraskad utav myndigheter. Vår skylt vid SILLEGÅRDSED´s korset, som skall visa vägen till RISVIKEN och Nordmarkens Kanot Center, har under många är varit riktigt dålig. Troligen förstörd av de som rensar diken eller av snöplogning.  Att få byta har inte gått. Men så häromdagen, var det helt nya skyltar till Risviken, Kanot Centret och Naturreservatet i Tegen. Man har hävdad, att visa vägen för långväga gäster utgjorde en trafikfara. Men min åsikt är kanske, att det är större trafikfara att folk med dålig lokalkänndom i regn och i mörker inte hittar sitt slutmål.

Jag tackar de ansvariga för uppskyltningen och att stolparna nu står rätt i sidled och hoppas att man tar hänsyn och inte förstör dessa kommande år. Tack även för den nya skylten med SILLEGÅRDSED så folk vet var de är. Suveränt.

License to kill !

Next year 2015 there will be Wolf hunting in the area north east of Nordmarken Canoe Center. In Värmland we got approximate 50% of the total number of wolf in Sweden. The license this year will be 24 wolf´s to be shoot. Yesterday a wolf was seen on the other side of our Lake V. Silen some 5 click from the shore line. Local see wolfs almost every week in the area north of us, but very few are reported to the Rovobs register. On the map you can see the different area where there are wolfs. As soon as the snow come we can have a better information about the number of wolfs in the different areas.
