Snow trek 1709




This looks like real snow! Thanks to our Great Northern War reenactor friends in Russia and the Baltic we have some great snow trekking photos to look at. I wonder if the winter is like it was in 1709? Looks like it. Wish I could have been there but I would probably be moaning about being cold! Excellent images. More photos here

That looks incredibly courageous! Talk about truly understanding how people felt at the time. As I am looking at the thermometer telling me it's -20C outside right now, I can imagine the cold of sleeping in the snow outside!!
Thanks for sharing those photos!
