Location
On a swamp with some trees and low undergrowth. less than 200 meters from a highway. Kirkkonummi, Espoo.
Participants
Plans
Should be easy. There is a place to park a car 500 meters from the hash and only the last 100 meters should be on the swamp.
Expedition
Another swamp expedition, like the 3 previous hashes which I did reach :)
After turning off the road 51 I followed 2 other cars to the Drusibackantie, noticed the missign sign and thought that it must mean "No thoroughfare to Peuramaa golf". Getting near was straightforward, just typical small residential road. On the other end the sign appeared to "only service access". Since I was now on a permissible road, I thought, parked the car. After leaving the car and walking along the Helsinki-Hanko highway on the other side of the wall. Things looked this will only take like 5 minutes. After wandering off the paved roadside the ground turned unstable.
First 50 meters off the wall were easy. Then the swamp started..
The swamp was kind of unusual, I'm used to see such swamps only near the coastlines, long reeds and no haircap moss. This swamp was not a korpi type swamp as I thought. A cross between letto and luhta types swamps would be more correct. This equals to *much* more water than I expected. The last 30 meters took the longest because finding suitable footing was tricky at times.
The haspoint was located on a island in the center of the swamp. On the island and around the area there was many depressions and paths where mooses have spent time. Few moose droppings were also found.
