Expedition

This hashpoint was exceptionally lucky since it was located very close to a road along which I would travel today. I visited South Karelia with my family, and on the way back I got the driver to stop the car so I could go and quickly find the hashpoint. The forest was young and dense but passable without too much pathfinding effort. I just took a few photos to document the visit and returned to the car, where I arrived five minutes after I had left.
