#1: Confluence point

(visited by John Dag Hutchison and Jin Sook Kang)

01-Aug-2024 -- It was easy driving from Tartu through agricultural land, fields, and forests. Google Maps took us to a point where we parked about 230 meters from the confluence point. From there, we followed a tractor track parallel to a drainage canal. The track was a bit overgrown with grass, blueberries, and heather, and there were some unripe cranberries. The actual confluence point was about eight meters to the side of the track. The most difficult thing was to get a photo of the reading on the Garmin. The weather was good, but the reflections on the screen made it difficult. On the way back to the car, we also came across a good spread of chanterelles, which we harvested for a later meal. We found plenty of bilberries, blueberries and some cranberries. But the latter were unripe. The Garmin shows the wrong date and time, but the correct information is found in the photos.
