Pauk river

Hi Steemians! Today I'll take you on a small photo-trip. Hope you like it!


River Pauk, which means spider, one of two rivers flowing through the town of Tuapse. Along it we will walk.

It all started with the fact that I overslept, thereby reducing my journey.
On the edge of the city was the exit to the river. It was necessary to overcome the crossing, and then the road went into the woods. I went in my old running shoes, already tested in battle this summer. And so it was that I soaked feet immediately, at the first crossing.
An if in the summer it was wonderful — cool water in thirty-degree heat. Now it was not so nice.
I decided to go further, if your feet are freezing — I'll just go back. In the end everything worked out, from walk, they warmed up very quickly.

Sometimes I was on the road. Sometimes stones let me go right along the riverbed.
Somewhere I crossed, jumping over the rocks. Sometimes I threw stones so there was a place to step to.
And then I ran into a place that can not be overcome. Only to get deep into water. There was nothing to do without rubber boots. But I didn't want to come back yet. So I decided to more carefully explore the area. To try to climb the slopes.

Prickly bushes and vines were very disturbing and pissed me off. Now I want a machete!=)

Photographed an interesting section, which are clearly visible layers of rock, crawling on top of each other.


At the right slope the moisture was dripping barely. At some point it broke down with a lot of drops. And I'm permanently stuck in this place trying to catch these drops in flight.Had to rise the ISO, and detail suffered. But nonetheless.

Then I noticed a distinct path leading into the woods away from the river. Thinking that there might be aт easy path to the higher ground, whence is a good view, I decided to check.

Bushes quickly turned into a rare wood, and I began to climb up the hill.

The last trace of civilization was a can of Carlsberg, which I found quite high on the trail and on the way back took it with me.

The path ended at an old tree. I tried to climb on the right side, but ran into an impassable wall of bushes. Got back a bit ago and saw that you can climb further to the left of the tree. And there was something white visible among the trees.

It was white stones. They crumble, or rainwater washes them down. In General, they formed a kind of path up. And then I saw the place clear of trees. You could look around there, I thought.
The ascent became rather steep, stones kept to go down with me. Had to climb all four.
Was a little scary, but it only added interest. The top was close. And there I sat on the rocks to rest and enjoy the view.

Sky, mountains, sun, sea in the distance, glimpses of the roofs. As the debris ceased to fall at some point, and the last part was not very easy — I thought the local revelers hardly got here. And I experienced a sweet feeling, maybe I am the first and the only person who sat on this cliff! It was a moment of pleasure.
The view at sunset must be fantastic! But I don't really like a thought of going down in the dark.
Upstairs I had the feeling of being all alone. And then I went to the city and moved back home. Tired, but happy!
