Grilling a sandwhich with lots of Emmental cheese.
At 23:30 I went to sleep, only to wake up one hour later to lots of noise and screaming. A few minutes later two snowmobiles arrived. Two guys had the splendid idea of driving their noisy machines somewhere to do some barbecuing. I probably looked rather unenthusiastic, so they suggested themselves that they could go to Rantapiha instead. They were polite enough, but still I have no respect at all for people using these noisy unnecessary machines in Southern Finland where the forest areas are quite small and the distances small. In addition, they certainly were not allowed to drive where they were driving. There are actually very few places snowmobiles can be legally driven on land in Southern Finland.
A little over seven in the morning I got up, made some coffee and porridge and packed my stuff into the backpack. At 7:50 I was on the move again. The temperature was -4°C. In the beginning it was quite dark due to the cloudy weather.
Nearing the sunrise at 9:08 it started to lighten quickly. My impression of the snowmobilers from the night was reinforced when I noticed that they at one section drove on the ski track, destroying the actual track. At one point one of the snowmobiles ran out of gas or broke down.
This was a nice ski track. Idiots!
Back on the bog again.
Snowshoeing is a perfectly fine activity by me.
A wetter part of the bog.
That's it. A nice small trip, but the fantastic weather from last week's trips would have been nicer.
