The hashpoint was on (the frozen) Paittasjärvi, near Pirttivuopio.

Great day for geohashing. I brought skis, but the snow was hard enough to walk on.

This was my second expedition this day, the first being our midnight circus geohash.

Afterwards, I went to Nikkaluokta where I had some coffee.

the ru earned the Walking on water geohash achievement by reaching the (67, 19) water geohash on 2009-04-20 on foot. Yes, on foot.

the ru achieved level 4 of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement by visiting coordinates in Kiruna, Sweden and 4 of the surrounding graticules.

the ru earned the Hashcard achievement by sending a postcard of the hashpoint area to relet on the (67, 19) expedition on 2009-04-20.

  The sign (also near Puoltsa) warns about a "wandering moose", which was nowhere to be seen

  I saw some reindeers though

  What grim fate has befallen (no pun intended) these poor trees? :-(

Hashcard

I made a mistake when I wrote the card - I thought Nikkaluokta was on the western side of the 18/19 border, but I was still in 67 19.
