But, from the causes I have referred to above, they 
seldom remain on any one spot for a long time; indeed, 
they are constantly on the move, so that it by no means 
follows that they will be found in the same parts two 
consecutive years. ‘The Dovre Fjeld, with its branches 
to the east, west, and south, is one of their favourite 
haunts. The Jotun Fjeld is probably the central 
point of that family, the divisions of which roam 
through the north-western parts of Gudbrandsdal, 
Valders, Nordfjord, Sondfjord, and Sogn. The im-

to the Sogne Fjord, and containmg numerous snow- 
capped mountains, the western declivities of which are 
covered with Hardanger glaciers or Folgefond, is not so 
sharply separated from the Jotun Fjeld, as to prevent 
the tribes which properly belong to each range at times 
intermingling with each other. On the extensive 
ranges between Hallingdal, Nummedal, and Thele- 
marken in the east, and Voss, Hardanger, and Ryfylke in 
the west, large quantities of reindeer are to be met with.
