Recordist's notes

On the plateau below the small mountain Fløya / Loavgavvári there is a point where hiking trails and the cable car exit encounter each other. I had walked up the Sherpatrappa trail to get the plateau, imagining I would have the landscape to myself, a chance to record one of the small streams under the pylons and near the cable car station and cafe. The opposite was the case, although it was midnight, the last cable car was full and there were a lot of hikers heading out on the trails.
