When we arrived back from the caves, this was the view from our basecamp looking out of the woods towards the small farming village beyond. Almost every night was an awesome sunset.

The picture below was taken around midnight as we all huddled around the blazing fire, talked, drank and told jokes. Pasha regaled us with some more of his great stories.

After
cooking our supper, we stoked up the fire with pine logs and huddled
close for warmth. The nights there were always below freezing. Had to
use a 5 second exposure for this photo. |

I'm
very proud of this cool photo showing our blazing campfire amidst all
the trees under a full moon. We stood around drinking tea while we waited
for the pot of stew to cook on the fire. |

These photos were all made by Pasha with his Canon G5. He's very good at setting up perfect shots as you can see in my favourite picture below.

The
photo on the right shows the view along the only track we found during
our hike back from the caves. |

Despite
several days of warm weather the ground is still mostly frozen and in
the forest there is several inches of snow and ice. |
