THE WILD REINDEER OF NORWAY. 93 
Ovre Thelemarken, between Lanefjeld and Nubseggen, 
there are fine tracts for reindeer. Indeed, the in- 
habitants of these districts are “‘ mighty hunters,” and 
subsist principally on venison. Also from Lerdal,

for those who wish to hunt on the Hurrung Feld. 
Nystuen (not to be confounded with the one above), at 
the head of Valders, will also be found to afford decent 
accommodation. 
Laurdal, in Gudbrandsdal, is a favourite resort for 
Englishmen (excellent general shooting is to be had in 
the vicinity) ; but it has been so much shot over during

especially Lomseggen, at the western extremity of the 
lake. 
The plateau between Rendalen and Trysil, on the 
borders of Sweden, is occasionally good for reindeer. 
The accommodation in the seters of this district is
