19-Dec-2004 -- This was our first attempt on a cold, snowy Ukrainian day. After several hours of riding we found the place. It's in a small village, so that we had to ask permissions from the landlords for passing through their lands and houses. :)

I'd like to thank four young men from the region for showing us the dogless ways :)) and Yul for being with me...
