Black stone hike in usmi forest

February is a wonderful time of the year: There's a lot of snow in the forest, so what could be better than just pick up your snowshoes, some warm clothing and head up to Hyvinkä's Usmi wilderness area.
Ketunretket decided to search for a new route to Black Stone area, which has been used for manufacturing gravestones.

Trees have snow on the branches, and the snow thickness can be more than half a meter. You really need to use snowshoes!

To make a fire outdoors, you will of course need some firewood. Hyvinkää town has taken care of that, so there was plenty of dry but big chunks of firewood available. But why didn't I take my axe with me?

After a while we had a small flame, so the coffee could be prepared. There's just nothing as good as coffee than the one that has been prepared in the snowy winter wonderland!

If it happens so that one of the hiking team gets tired, you just need to place some kind of  a lure...
