“We were half a day and 10 miles into the Swedish backcountry, with a plan to make it to the next hut—13 miles away—by nightfall. We’d also need to ferry across a 1.2-mile-wide lake to get there. Did we know there was a storm coming in with strong winds on the rise? Boats dock early when weather like that whips up."

Running 150 miles on Sweden’s Kungsleden, or King’s Trail, seemed like Eric Noll’s idea of a perfect vacation. As an advanced R&D designer, he also saw it as an opportunity to build and test a multiday running pack that had been in his head for years. So he built a prototype (OK maybe eight prototypes) and set off from Stockholm to test a new theory about the way we move through the mountains. The trip kicked off with an unplanned bivouac—not exactly welcome, but in some ways exactly what he was looking for. Read Eric’s story at the link in our bio.
