Bajep Sårjåsjávrre

Bajep Sårjåsjávrre (English: Upper Lake Sårjås) is a lake that lies on the northern edge of the Sulitjelma massif[2] near the border between Norway and Sweden. It lies immediately west of larger Vuolep Sårjåsjávrre (Lower Lake Sårjås), which straddles the border between the two countries. The 1.6-square-kilometer (0.62 sq mi)[3] lake lies just to the east of the large Blåmann Glacier.[1]
