The point had fallen on the grounds of Paraspõllu ("Proper Field's") nature reserve in the village named Suursoo which means "Big Swamp" in translation. Besides that, it was just 50m from a channel, which is part of the channel system that supplies city of Tallinn with fresh drinking water. And of course, access to the road on shore of the channel was blocked with a gate. So I had to take the road on the other shore, which was in very bad condition, because officially there was no road at all. When I stopped to visit the point, there came a guy with a SUV from the opposite direction. He stopped beside me and asked if I'm not afraid to get stuck in such conditions. My answer was "Yes". After visiting the point, I took a little walk. There were lots of tracks of ATV in the forest.

The sun that had been shining all through the morning, was hidden behind dense clouds in the afternoon. Later it started raining little bit. I parked my car at the entrance of a peat career, 1.35km from the destination. It was +5C outside and ground was covered with 10-15cm deep wet and sticky snow. The point had fallen onto a clear cut area of forest.

It was a nice and sunny winter day - without snow and the weather actually reminded me rather mid-summer than Christmas :)  The point was hidden in forest, behind a swamp.

It was a windy day and sea had risen far out of its bed because of the storm. However, there's no sea nor storm in the forest, so it's a good idea to visit a dashpoint. It's possible to drive to 1.45km, where I decided to stop to not get stuck. The road onward was quite muddy and several trees had fallen on it because of the storm. The point was in the middle of swampy forest.

The storm had taken trees down onto the trail...

...and toppled the platforms for hunting wild boars

As it's been usual for me during the recent weeks, I tried out the nice features of Danish public transport system yesterday, by taking the train from Copenhagen to Ny Hagested. The only bad thing in it was, that the train (or the train-bus as it's actually called) didn't stop in Ny Hagested, but just passed through it :))  So I had to walk 4km from the next station back to the point. But whatever, the weather was nice and sunny and actually I enjoyed it. The point was in a corner of a potato-field, next to some bushes.

It was on the edge of forest and a swamp. It was possible to drive to 400m, from where we walked. After visiting the point, we were exploring Tagamõisa peninsula and did some geocaching. It's a lot of abandoned ruins of Soviet military facilities around there.

The point had fallen on the land of village Haeska - just like 2 months ago it had happened to GDCN-MOUN. But as it's kind of a big and sparse village, the distance between the points was 3.3km. I got off from bus about 1.2km from the destination and walked from there through the woods. The point was in the middle of a field, which looked like freshly sowed. Its soil was rolled hard and was sparsely covered with white granules of fertilizer. I took a long walk in the area, because the next bus back was 6h after my arrival.
