#1: Forest all around ...

(visited by Juris Lavendels and Linda Beinare)

06-Jul-2003 -- This point is located in forest about 100m from closest dirt road and 3km from border with Lithuania. Forest is in low place with old fallen trees and swarms of bloodsucking insects. Also dense canopy is dense (and wet after rain) and attenuate GPS signals, so wasn’t possible get all 0 on the screen. As compensation we find couple of very tasty (and big!) mushrooms for evening meal.
