Entry 4 February 2009 - Toyota Vista 20L 1993

Situation 4.02.09.
I went on a business trip to Azovo for work, at the same time I had to call in Maryanovka, from Omsk to Azovo km. 30, but then had to go back almost to the city and another 50 in the other direction ((scary not like ...
I remembered that traveled in the summer as it is shorter, on a straight road, a plus was more GPS on PDA, one hundred percent not get lost,.
On the minus Street 15, The snowstorm doesn't sweep much, but it wasn't ...
... I drove eight kilometers, along the road that GPS prescribed for me, beauty, steppe, blizzard, no one on the road, silence, ... music slowly, I look at the road getting worse and worse ... a village appeared, with a maximum of 8-10 yards, the road smoothly bends around it ... and gradually begins to be covered with snow ... after driving another 200 meters I understand that the road is practically invisible, everything is white, the blizzard has gained strength, it is sweeping as it should be in February in Siberia ... I reached the intersection, stopped, I looked in the direction where the GPS indicated, the snow 10 centimeters covered, there are practically no traces of cars, I understand, something is dangerous, ... on the right, the same thing, the road goes into a birch tree on the map, but I don't need it a bit, and I don't need this road, and I didn't want to check it.
I decided to go by GPS (a smart car writes with some difficulty). There is no desire to turn back at all, it's a pity, but it's already gone ... yes, the gps showed the road at 8 km, and then the road is better (judging by the PDA), let's break through ...
After driving 50 meters the "road to nowhere" sharply turned 90 degrees to the left and I saw all the beauty of the Siberian steppes in a blizzard! A minute to think and it suddenly became clear to me that there was practically nothing left of the road, only hints of snow following the traces of a week ago, and they indicate that the car was not at all a passenger car, ... the thought that if I stop, then vryatli already start ... snow with a shaft ... and the whistka is automatic, you won't skid, ... turn on MANU ... 2-3-2-3 gear speed 30-40 km / h, a little menu starts to get bogged down in the snow,.
.The whistle starts to periodically cling to the belly of snow moving through the so-called road ... really scary ... I think that if I burrow, who will pull me out? the director of the VAZ 110 has no reason, the tractor is 15 kilometers away in each direction. And how to explain to a person in any of the fields I))) ...
... on gps slowly and as are the nerves umenshaetsya distance to the promised snowstorm ... ... convolution
. I remember how 1 km remained. before the package, for a long time such a distance did not seem so long to me ...
... a package seemed to me, I drown in gas ... a little more and ... that's all ... EARTH! STRONGHOLD!
walked around the car, pereklyuchaetsya spruce box, frozen in the snow,. a feeling of complete satisfaction and really amazing!
… I got to the place, shared the feelings that I was still experiencing inside… the men said that there was no road there))) only in the summer it was unpaved between fields, and only occasionally the Kazakhs of these nearest half-dead villages ride among themselves on tractors to each other. "Now, - I say - there is a road))) ...
and the road was a little more to the right, it was only necessary to take a little to the right from Azovo and that's it ...
this is how My Vistachka showed herself in the snow ...
She was a big plus for this, ... I
unexpectedly got to the end of these 8 km.

in the first photo: the
red arrow indicates my path with the
red intermittent "THESE 8 KM."
and blue, where there was a road ...
to the second and third expanses of the MOTHERLAND. 10 minutes before the intersection))!
