Stora silverdroppen

Áhkká

Áhkká (Lule Sami for 'wife',[1]pronounced[ˈɑːhːkɑː]), is a massif in the southwestern corner of Stora Sjöfallet National Park in northern Sweden.

The massif has twelve individual peaks and ten glaciers,[2] of which Stortoppen is the highest at 2, metres (6, feet). This peak is the tenth-highest in Sweden. Most notable is that the mountain has a vertical drop of 1,&#;m (5,&#;ft), from the top of the highest summit down to the lake Akkajaure in the valley below, which is located at &#;m (1,&#;ft). This is the highest vertical drop found in Sweden. Since the lake below the mountain is regulated by a hydroelectric power station, its surface can drop down to &#;m (1,&#;ft), which makes the mountain's vertical drop rise to a maximum of 1,&#;m (5,&#;ft). Due to the large level differences and the massif being well held together and rather isolated, it looks impressive, earning it the nickname Queen of Lapland. In the Sámi tradition it is a holy mountain, and some hikers regard it with a sense of awe and mystique.

    Redan hade arkitekten Sven Markelius fått i uppdrag att göra stadsplaner för området kring Sveavägens sydligaste del, där samtidigt blivande gröna tunnelbanelinjen planerades byggas i öppet schakt. Markelius, som var chef för utredningsavdelningen vid Byggnadsstyrelsen – och sedermera stadsplanedirektör i Stockholm under åren –, planlade sedan omdaningen av Nedre Norrmalm. Många arkitekter engagerades i frågan, bland andra David Helldén, Paul Hedqvist och Tage William-Olsson. Deras och Stadsplanekontorets förslag presenterades i facktidskriften Byggmästaren år
