Aloitin vaelluksen parkkipaikalta v\u00e4h\u00e4n kolmen j\u00e4lkeen iltap\u00e4iv\u00e4ll\u00e4. S\u00e4\u00e4 oli l\u00e4mmin ja kaunis. L\u00e4mp\u00f6asteita oli ehk\u00e4 seitsem\u00e4ntoista, ja muutenkin oli kyll\u00e4 hyv\u00e4 mieli aloittaa t\u00e4m\u00e4 lyhyt vaellus. Kaikille vaellusp\u00e4iville oli luvattu sadetta, mutta eip\u00e4 se pit\u00e4nyt paikansa. Pohjoisessa vaeltaessa oppii kyll\u00e4 jossain kohtaa, ett\u00e4 s\u00e4\u00e4tiedotteet ei aina pid\u00e4 paikansa. Onneksi t\u00e4ll\u00e4 kertaa se oli mukava yll\u00e4tys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reitti oli ihan ok, vaikka maasto oli aika muodokasta. Lemmenjoen kansallispuistossa reitit on aika paljon yl\u00f6s alas liikett\u00e4. K\u00e4velin ehk\u00e4 jotain kolmea kilometri\u00e4 tunnissa, joten melko paljon hitaammin kuin tasaisella olisin k\u00e4vellyt. Pidin ensimm\u00e4isen tauon Sotkaj\u00e4rven laavulla, jossa s\u00f6in ja kahvittelin. Se oli p\u00e4iv\u00e4n ensimm\u00e4inen kunnon ruoka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tauon j\u00e4lkeen reitti jatkui harjua pitkin. Maisemat olivat aika kauniit, kun vaaroja pilkahteli esiin puiden v\u00e4list\u00e4. Laitoin siit\u00e4 kuvan viimeisen tekstin yhteyteen. Seuraava pys\u00e4hdys olikin joen ylitys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ylitys tehtiin tommoisella veneell\u00e4, joka oli kiinni tuollaisessa k\u00f6ysi systeemiss\u00e4. Oli kyll\u00e4 oudoin ylitys v\u00e4line, jolla oon menny, mutta yli p\u00e4\u00e4stiin, niin kaikki hyvin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seuraava tauko olisi sitten H\u00e4rk\u00e4koskella. Sinne k\u00e4velty p\u00e4tk\u00e4 oli aika helppo, mutta se oli ehk\u00e4 v\u00e4h\u00e4n tyls\u00e4hk\u00f6\u00e4 mets\u00e4polkua pitkin. Vasemmalla puolella n\u00e4kyi vaarojen siluettia mets\u00e4n l\u00e4pi, mutta edess\u00e4 p\u00e4in n\u00e4kyi vaan mets\u00e4\u00e4. Silloin oli jo aika my\u00f6h\u00e4, ja vaikka aurinko ei t\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 pohjoisessa laske kes\u00e4isin, oli aika h\u00e4m\u00e4r\u00e4\u00e4. H\u00e4m\u00e4ryys johtui siit\u00e4, ett\u00e4 aurinko oli kuitenkin jo aika alhaalla ja mets\u00e4n isot puut blokkas auringon valoa. Vilkuilin aika paljon olkani ylitse luulleeni n\u00e4hneeni jotain, vaikka eih\u00e4n siell\u00e4 mit\u00e4\u00e4n koskaan ollutkaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pidin H\u00e4rk\u00e4koskella pienen tauon ja jatkoin sitten Ravadasj\u00e4rvelle. Polku oli aika helppoa, ja olinkin sitten y\u00f6pymis paikallani aika nopeasti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
P\u00e4iv\u00e4 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Her\u00e4sin ja s\u00f6in aamupalaa. Ruispuuroa maitojauheella maistui aikas hyv\u00e4lt\u00e4, vaikka s\u00e4\u00e4 olikin v\u00e4h\u00e4n sateinen. Seuraava pys\u00e4hdys olisi sitten Kultahaminassa. Mulla oli aika suuret tavoitteet t\u00e4lle p\u00e4iv\u00e4lle, mutta heti p\u00e4iv\u00e4n alku oli pahin kohta t\u00e4h\u00e4n meness\u00e4. Polulla oli paljon pieni\u00e4 puroja, mitk\u00e4 piti ylitt\u00e4\u00e4 ja polulle oli kaatunut paljon puita. (Yhdell\u00e4 tuvalla tavattu retkeilij\u00e4 kertoi, ett\u00e4 oli laskenut kaatuneita puita olevan 13) T\u00e4m\u00e4n melko \u00e4rsytt\u00e4v\u00e4n (en viitsi kiroilla) p\u00e4tk\u00e4n aikana huomasin oikeassa polvessa pient\u00e4 kipua. Mulla on ollut polvissa kipuja ennenkin, joten se ei ollut sin\u00e4ns\u00e4 mit\u00e4\u00e4n uutta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P\u00e4\u00e4sin Kultahaminaan v\u00e4syneen\u00e4, mutta matkaa tarvitsi jatkaa. K\u00e4velty\u00e4ni hetken aikaa kivist\u00e4 m\u00e4ke\u00e4 yl\u00f6sp\u00e4in polveni totesi, ett\u00e4 t\u00e4m\u00e4 riitt\u00e4\u00e4 kiitos vain ja jouduin pys\u00e4htym\u00e4\u00e4n. Siin\u00e4, m\u00e4r\u00e4ll\u00e4 puunrungolla, istuessani pohdin hetken vaihtoehtojani ja p\u00e4\u00e4tin hilautua takaisin Kultahaminaan. Se oli viimeinen paikka, josta saisin viel\u00e4 venekyydin takaisin l\u00e4ht\u00f6pisteelle. Reitti olisi jatkunut haastavana ja kivisen\u00e4, joten paras ratkaisu oli p\u00e4\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 vaellus. Mulla ei my\u00f6sk\u00e4\u00e4n olisi ollut aikaa j\u00e4\u00e4d\u00e4 johonkin leiriin lepuuttamaan polvea.\nOdottelin kyyti\u00e4 viitisen tuntia, ja sielt\u00e4h\u00e4n saapui vene sitten noutamaan mut ja parin muun vaeltajan. Veneell\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4sin Njurkunlahteen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En ole koskaan p\u00e4\u00e4tt\u00e4nyt vaellusta. Pohdin asiaa jo silloin, kun huomasin polvessa pient\u00e4 kipua, mutta ei sit\u00e4 nyt pienten kipujen takia j\u00e4tet\u00e4 vaellusta kesken. Kenties joku katsoi mun per\u00e4\u00e4n silloin, koska se polvi kipeytyi aika pahasti v\u00e4h\u00e4n ennen kuin olisin ollut aika kaukana Kultahaminasta. Olisi my\u00f6s ollut kiusallista kutsua joku hakemaan mua sitten kaumpaa reitilt\u00e4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No jokainen kokemus on kokemus, ja j\u00e4i mulla ihan hyv\u00e4t muistikuvat tosta vaelluksesta. Kirjoitan t\u00e4t\u00e4 teksti\u00e4 nyt viikko ton j\u00e4lkeen, joten voin sanoa, ett\u00e4 polvi on jo parempi eik\u00e4 siin\u00e4 ole en\u00e4\u00e4 melkein ollenkaan kipuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n My plan was to hike the summer hiking trail which you can find on the luontoon.fi site. The trail would have been 49.2 kilometers and I was going to walk it in 2.5 days. Maybe little bit ambitious. But I don\u00b4t know how ambitious it was, because on the second hiking day my knee started
