a pony are indispensable. The journey takes about 
ten hours, and is as lonely and rugged as mountain 
felds covered with nothing but reindeer moss can 
make it. Ona clear day the Dovre may be distinctly 
seen in the distance; and the snow-capped top of 
Snehetten stands out in bold relief when the atmo- 
sphere is clear. The guide will require three dollars, 
including the pony; at least I had to pay that 
sum. 
A short distance below Femund Séen the fishing is 
of a most superior class; and though a good deal of 
netting is done, yet it is a district so thinly inhabited 
that there are but few to interrupt the angler. A tent, 
though desirable, is not absolutely requisite. Very 
fair quarters, and a boarded bedroom, with a bedstead 
and clean sheets all to yourself (!), are to be had at 
Sundeth Gaard—a luxury not always to be had in 
outlying districts. Trout of a very large size may be 
taken. The fishing is best from boats, as the river, 
"is broad. 
These two rivers, the Klar and the Rena, are 
decidedly the best rivers in the whole province. The 
Osen Env, fallmg into the Rena a short distance 
before this latter empties itself into the Glommen, is a 
nice trout-stream ; and the Aasta Exy, falling into 
the Glommen near Bjornstad, is a very likely-looking 
stream, and has some remarkably fishy-looking pools.
