This is my entry for the @tattoodjay's Wednesday walk challenge.


Last week I did not finish my photo story about one of my trips to the pine forest at the weekend. I keep going to this place on the weekend. We found new paths and routes, new places for descending on snow-scooters. I will tell you about it. But in order to observe the chronology, first I will finish my last story.


Last time I finished my story on how my wife was tired and my son took her to a snow scooter. But of course mother’s strength and conscience was not long enough. Further the snow scooter was carried by mum. I cannot do this, I shoot this photostory 8))


Ahead of the road hangs a tree covered with a snow cap. And there in the distance a woman leaned against a tree and listens to the silence of the winter forest.



The forest around us changes periodically. Here we see long, but absolutely bare branches of larches hanging over the road.



And here on both sides of the road hang more familiar pines. In winter, they look much more attractive.




The snow under our feet is fluffy and almost not trampled. This is due to the fact that not many people, not counting skiers, go on this long route. Look at the deep ski tracks and the air flakes of snow around it.



This snow looks so cool that you want to throw it up in the air like a child and watch millions of fluffs go down. My wife did that ... And I took a picture. This picture is not easy to do. I used a series for this. Then I simply chose from the 20-odd frames the one that most suited me.



And we continue our way. This photo shows that it is difficult to understand where the road leads and how long the path will be if you are not already familiar with the route.




Sometimes among the pines you can see ordinary trees with bare branches.



Slowly moving, we have already reached the place from which one can begin a long descent on a snow-scooter to the exit from the forest. But here on the left, before the pines, we saw some kind of path. Previously, we did not pay attention to it.



However, this time we decided to take a closer look and this place became for us one of the most interesting finds in this forest. We found not very long but rather steep descent. At the same time it is clear that snowmobiles and skiers sometimes ride here.



Of course, we decided to try this descent and go down from it on a snow scooter. Here you can develop a very high speed, but this is not terrible, because there is a lot of snow along the edges of the track and therefore it is almost impossible to fly out of it.


I gave my phone to my son so that he would shoot our descent while I was driving a snow scooter.



We have done a few descents. Feel great. But it was hard to climb back through the loose snow. After another climb, my son fell on the snow and lay there for several minutes without moving.





A little breath, we went further.





While I was photographing the graphics of a larch forest ....




My relatives were moved along the forest path.





Because of the loose snow, we went on foot to the car. The snow scooter was difficult to disperse on gentle slopes. Already leaving the forest, I made this photo. This road is the most trampled. Here most often people walk. After all, the parking lot is very close.





And we like to walk there where there are no people and there is no other noise than the sounds of nature.

Having come to the car, I once again tried to make a photo of snowflakes in close-up. Still, for this I need to fix the phone on a tripod.





So ended our next walk. In future posts, I will tell you about new routes and discoveries.

Let's meet on next wednesday!

I strongly recommend to open the photo in a separate tab to appreciate it.
