#1: Confluence point

(visited by John Dag Hutchison and Jin Sook Kang)

25-Jul-2024 -- This is the confluence point closest to Tallinn. It took us just an hour to reach it after stopping at the roadside about 30 meters from the actual confluence point.

The weather was fine when we started. Halfway through, it poured down but stopped just a few kilometers before we arrived.

Dense underbrush and shrubs formed a wall along the road. After pushing through, we found ourselves in a dense spruce forest with many dry branches at face level. As the rain returned, it became relatively dark in the spruce forest, making it difficult to read the Garmin. We hurriedly settled for a spot 8 meters from the confluence point, took the required photos, and rushed back to the car. On the way, we passed an orange-colored trunk with "N59 E25" written on it. Later, we discovered that it could be seen in one of the photos I had taken. The Garmin shows wrong date and time, but the pictures have the correct data.
