starting point:
The starting point of our excursion was the gravel road from Nishneangarsk
to Kichera where it cross the Neruchanda creek.
we have started early in the morning from Severebaikalsk. Our time
schedule has foreseen 8 hours walk for round about 8,5 kilometers through
the Taiga and the hills mostly without trail - as we understand later it
was a completely wrong plan.
Neruchanda gravel bed:
from a forest track where Sascha has brought us with his truck, we has
walked up to the bed of the Neruchanda creek.
walk along Neruchanda:
We had a hard walk through the gravel bed of this creek, but we could nit
find another easier trail.
decision point:
because of the forest height in left an right we could not detect the
right entry to our upside valley. So we have assumed it here, because a
runnel came from right direction - an indication for me that here is the
valley entry. (That was the next failure, not to store some intermediate
point on the GPS receiver)
