River crossing

We do not walk on any existing road or routes. With help of a map and a GPS we plan our route. Every onw and then you run into a river you need to cross. You have no other option than to look for a place where it is not too deep and the current is not too strong...

Knee deep through the water...

Your shoes will not stay dry. On the other side of the river you can pour the water from your shoes and wring out your socks. Luckily the temperatures are not too bad. On most days it will be around 8 degrees (47 F). At night time it doesn't cool down very much; the sun doesn't really set here remember...

Mini-thermometer on my backpack...
