Expedition

Almost ready, again.

This morning Pastori and Wife had set their sights on 3 hashpoints. So, Pastori and Wife set out towards the north on the Northern Lights Route (a scenic route in Northern Finland). The first point lay about 1 km before the Arctic Circle. Getting close to the point was easy, going along the driveway to a house and then about 20 metres under the electrical line. But underneath the line was a regular coppice-jungle but nonetheless Wife managed to catch a glimpse of Pastori with her camera. Accuracy was a satisfactory 2,114 metres. Pleased by the success, Pastori and Wife took a turn around the Arctic Circle and continued towards their next challenge.
