Location

In Palokangas forest near Uramo lake, next to the municipal border.

The point on a topographic map: [1] (The site may glitch and throw you in a wrong place, but you can zoom out until you see the marker)

Participants

Expedition

We were in Joensuu on summer holiday, and we had a rental car to use. This hashpoint happened to be pretty easily accessible, and the weather was good, so we went adventuring. The area is nearly uninhabited as people tend to live near waterways and on hills, but there are many small forest roads, so getting there is not too difficult.

We parked the car on an opening by the forest road and continued on foot through the woods. Girlfriend found lots of bilberries near the top of the hill and stayed to pick them while I continued to visit the hashpoint. I also ate handfuls of bilberries which dyed my fingers and my mouth bright purple.

We then drove to another place where we knew we would find more bilberries. The summer has been suboptimal for wild berry pollination, and berry yield is expected to be below average, but we were still able to find nice amounts in the time we spent outside.
