For some of us, wool is a material to work with and create with— and more. For others of us, ... -

Tilrettelegging for friluftsliv
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2025-01-02)Den rette linja mellom to punkter i landskapet er ikke alltid den raskeste. Det lønner seg ofte å gå i buer, for å unngå bratte skrenter, komme rundt et stup, eller bare en oppgått sti. Stier slynger seg mellom fjell og gjennom søkk og daler der det er lettest å ta seg frem. Enkelte steder er stiene bearbeidet, eller tilrettelagt som man gjerne kaller det; klopper over myrer, bruer over elver, trapper ... -
