Photographer’s Note

This is a pedestrial "ice crossing" through river Sheksna on a way from Kirillov to Belozersk.

In winter somebody who moves by public transport from Kirillov to Belozersk has to go by bus to this bank of Sheksna at village Divkovo, then go on foot by ice to other bank and there take a bus to Belozersk. Timetables of the both buses are always coordinated.

Signs on the photo tell: "Way for pedestrians only!" and "Interval not less than 4 meters".

What is here in summer, I don't know. But it's obvious that this crossing is closed in late spring when the ice is thowing, and in late autumn when the river is being frozen.

There is another way by a bridge, but it takes a compass of about 100 kilometers.
