Until I was lost, until I was part

Swamp 1

Swamp 2

Swamp 3

On June 21st I explored the swamps in north parts of Vaakkoi, from Kokkoissuo swamp to Turvesuo swamp. There were several types of swamps, and some of them were open, without trees.

The opposite of walk?

Kämmenlampi

Kokkoissuo

Here are photographs taken at Vaakkoi on August 11th. This is the farthest I have walked in Vaakkoi, all the way to lake Kämmenlampi. And nearby there is an open swamp, Kokkoissuo, which seems to be worth exploring.
