Luosto by snowshoes
I was going to write about my holiday adventures in central Finland. But then came The Big Snowfall and powdered everything. The snowfall still continues outside my window as I'm writing this. So, obviously, we headed for a snowy adventure instead. The destination for this time was Luostotunturi (or Luosto fell). I'm working in the ski resort located there, so I'm not quite easily driving there when it's my day off. The idea came from my friend and he also offered to drive. So why not. And the day was totally worth it. At first we walked by foot, as the snowshoe trail was so used, that you didn't actually need snowshoes on it. But after a while we decided to leave the trail and headed to the unknown. There was surprisingly a lot of snow in the forest. And also surprise rocks just couple centimeters under the snow surface, ready to scratch you knee. The forest itself was calm and quiet. Snow covering
