Naulavaara, Sotkamo






Naulavaara on eteläisen Suomen korkein mäki (367,7m) merenpinnasta, mutta on nippa nappa Pohjois-Suomen puolella, Sotkamon eteläosassa. Naulavaara on metsäinen mäki, enimmäkseen kuusikkoa. Minun kulkureitilläni vaaran laella oli vain yksi hakkuuaukko. Alempana Naulavaaran itärinteillä, näyttää olevan hakkuuaukkoja, muista rinteistä en tiedä. Mäen korkeuteen nähden näköalat on aika huonot mäen laelta, koska Naulavaara on metsäinen. Lisäksi Naulavaaran ympäristö on muutenkin ylävää, Maanselän korkeinta aluetta, eli Naulavaara ei kohoa valtavasti ympäristöään korkeammalle. Talvella tykkyluminen Naulavaara on varmaan kaunis näky.

Maisemat eivät näy kovin hyvin Naulavaaran metsäiseltä laelta.



Ilmeisesti Naulavaaran korkein kohta (367,7m) on tässä punaisen kepin luona, keskellä lakimetsää, josta ei näe maisemia.

Ainoa hakkuuaukko Naulavaaran laella ja paras? maisemapaikka, mutta siitä huolimatta
näköaloja ei juuri ole verrattuna moniin muihin vaaroihin.

Very early snowless landscape 13.3.2014 Siilinjärvi

Hello!

Today I did a bike trip of 25,6km.  I took few photos and two YouTube- videos today. The weather was warm, +8C. It was more sunny earlier today 13.3. About 90% of landscape was snowless, which is very unusual at this time of the year at here. I have never seen this kind of situation. Usually layer of snow is biggest at halfway of March and is often 50cm or more at Eastern Finland. I would say that the spring is about 6 weeks ahead compared to average spring if we look the snow situation in the nature. The next week is predicted to be colder and more wintry.
My skiing season was really short because of warm winter and little (20cm) layer of snow. It was one week at December and three weeks at February. Normally 13.3 there are still good skiing conditions and skiing season last up to four months per winter.
Last two years I have able to ski until at the end of first week of April.
I hope early and long summer!

19.2.2014 skiing trip

Hello!

Today I did my longest skiing trip of this winter. It was 18km. My skis slide well and snow was more slippery than few earlier times. The snow layer in the nature is very thin, only about 20 cm. Normally it is many times thicker at this time of the year. There was only a little amount of skiers at noon and after that.
