→Anniña and Kygni's Kebnekaise adventure
Once at Keb Mountain Station, we did not have the weather on our side but had to wait a few days before we could head to the top. So we had to spend time colouring [[Zone:KebStation|KebStation]] (ed. in Warded the zones get different colours depending on how many times you have taken them). We managed to paint it red during our stay. While we waited for better weather we went on shorter trips, for example we visited [[Zone:TarfalaStugan|TarfalaStugan]] which was the most complicated zone around Kebnekaise. It was almost impossible to get coverage there even though we had access to 4 different cell phone operators.
On the third day the weather was better and we started our journey up to the top. When we got over the first peak, we passed Kaffedalen and I (Anniña) managed to go through the snow/ice layer, so when we got up a bit on the very top of Kebnekaise, the energy started to run out, but then I, who had been disconnected from the outside world since we left [[Municipality:Kiruna|Kiruna]], received a message greeting me welcome to [[Country:Norway|Norway]] so I could go into the Turf app and realize that we were very close to the first zone [[Zone:NyaTopstugan|NyaTopstugan]] which unfortunately was far from the top cottage but taking the zone gave me new strength so the next hour up to the top which was mostly to wade through wet snow did not feel like a problem. It was great to stand in the Kebnekaise zone and look at the South top, our goal.
Once we reached Sydtoppen (ed. zone [[Zone:Kebnekaise|Kebnekaise]]), we realized that the hope of also being able to take [[Zone:KebNordtoppen|KebNordtoppen]] had to be postponed to the future. It was with a mixture of horror and delight that we stood there at the top. We could not really rejoice that we had managed to climb it because now we had the whole long way back.
