The border is in the woods again. Sometimes some wet areas. At BM56 the border follows the small creek which ends in a small swampy lake.

From the Pabra lake north in the direction of the Luhamaa border crossing.

A long empty corridor in the wood to indicate the border area. Border Guards can hide easlily here and have a good view of activities in this are. When I was here in 2015, I was followed and observed without knowing it.

The border makes a 90 degrees angle. I had to make a detour to keep my feet dry.

In the end I couldn't keep them dry. Water everywhere, which is bad for my hiking shoes.

Higher and dry grounds again.

The area is a bit hilly here. The lower parts are wet, the higher parts are dry.
The gangboards you see, are on the Russian side. The State border runs in the middle.

The border runs through along a small creek in the middle. The Russian border markers are situated close to the water. Due to the vegetation I couldn't recognize most of them.

With my zoom lense I spotted the Russian copy standing in the water.

Here it looks that the creek runs on the Estonian side. You can see the orange picket close to the Russian marker at the other side of the water.

EE-RU  20160415 Border marker 58
No Russian pole. I guess it's on the dry side of the half-lake.

EE-RU  20160415 Border marker 58
The Estonian picket was easy to find however.

EE-RU  20160415 Border marker 59
Very far away.
I ahould have to come back once the Estonian poles are placed.

EE-RU  20160415 Border marker 60
Water everywhere now. The border will run again through the swamp.

A firm bridge leads to the bank of the swamp.
