Expedition

This was a lucky day! The hashpoint situated only 780 m from my home and in the middle of the river Kemijoki. Our rowing boat is on the shore of the lake Salmijärvi. Salmijärvi is in direct connection with the river Kemijoki. The rowing route should be only about 1.5 km. So I hired my son to row the boat (salary was 5 euros). We reached the point very easily in spite of big waves in the beginning.

By car total 4 km
By boat total 3.0 km
Expedition took 1.5 h
Physical effort (1-5): 3
