Winter Tarp Camp on Kalasuntti Island - Teijo National Park, SW Finland
Channel: Snowcelt

Hi folks! 

I am once again overnighting solo in early winter, and I took along my DD Hammocks XL  (4.5m x 2.9m) Superlight tarp. The trail I followed winds its way around the picturesque Sahajärvi Lake, located within Teijo National Park, SW Finland. I crossed over the lake to the island on a rope-pulled ferry and overnighted on the picturesque Kalasuntti Island. I show how I set up my tarp using a ridgeline in an A-frame variant, which was very spacious. 

The temperature dropped overnight and signs of approaching winter were evident from the 0.5 cm of ice on the small bay beside my campsite the following morning. Although I slept poorly, I ate well the first evening and also had a hearty breakfast of coffee and fried bacon served on flatbreads made of potato, known as peruna rieskanen. 

The footage was filmed with a GoPro 11.
