Yoik Of The Wind

by Sofia Jannok

A 2.5 h hike in the neighbourhood of the Kiilopää fell. The main blip and one of the extras show the fell in the background. The sun shone only once during the hike (one of the extras was taken during that short spell), and it rained lightly throughout the later half of the hike.

The terrain was quite barren, especially on high ground (the second extra). The main blip also shows the wooden planks (pitkospuut in Finnish, duckboards in English) used traditionally to enable crossing marshes and other soft and treacherous terrain. That is my wife and her friend on the duckboards. We really enjoyed the nature and the fall colours.
