Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky

Today - not a normal day. The onset of the Old New Year I remember for a lifetime that it is in the winter day in 1991, I saw in my life, the only active volcano eruption - namely Avachinskii. Today I want to show some pictures of everyday winter Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.


We Kamchadals, living there often criticized the city how much in vain - for the seven-day blizzard February and March when the week can not see anything outside the window; for the end of May, "flavored" unexpected snow from the cold of the Pacific cyclone; of detachment from life - as if the Internet did not have any; for obsharpannost vremenschitsky homes and lifestyle. But now I only remember him constantly, but he also often I dream. No city dream, but he dreams of climbing. It was a lot of good.
Well, where is this stunning red eat fish as there? A normal crab - claws and sharp weld feet in salt water, cut with scissors and pull out the meat? A bike trips to the Cape Lighthouse - on the edge of the earth and the Pacific, which can be seen from the hill, as the earth curves? A black submarine, going alone to the Avacha goal, which will have long march? You stand on the precipice of a great majachnye and bated breath, watching as it goes into the ocean, crossing abeam Cape Stanitskogo. But shikshovye field of volcanoes in Nalychёvo to which you can simply bend down and drink a berry? And the evening ships in the harbor of Avacha Bay, beautifully glowing in dark blue water? Get down to the Seroglazka from the eighth and admire them all the time. A homemade volcanoes suddenly clothed in elegant snowy cap for only one August night? And so much more ...
In this series of pictures is not something beautiful, amazing - it's just a regular winter life distant Russian city on the shores of Avacha Bay.

Machines after several "layers" blizzard. If you do not dig up a permanent "swallow", the snow a couple of months and 3-4 slёzhivaetsya blizzard, the sun pressed down, and then took her out very problematic :)


And here is another striking example. A snipe all his swallow to fall not "get". Perhaps a sailor with more flights.


The so-called "KP". It is a long-standing short for "Komsomolskaya Square", probably few people remember that this is so, but in common parlance is called the place "KAAE." Hotel "Avacha" and its restaurant, mutilated gaming industry. From here go solid Wake up the hill to the fifth kilometer. Pay attention to the March already "geological" layer of snow. Each layer notes snowstorm, then "crushed" portion poslepurgovogo sun.


Wake up from the 'bakery' at the 4th km. Bakery here a long time, 25 years is not, in its place built a department of internal affairs, and stop when I was called, I do not know now. Below you can see the only Kamchatka "skyscraper", built on the decline of the Big Petropavlovsk, in the late '80s. Then the city's population fell by more than a third of the people in dashing the nineties pouehal masse, and such projects are no longer up to. What is this gloomy building on the right, it is not clear to me, I have not found.
I remember this podemu was very difficult to climb the Great, as a strong winter blizzard I got it three times to walk up to the fifth - for buses could not walk.


And it kind of almost the same place upstairs on the fourth kilometer. Once at the top there was the cinema "Rodina", which was then in the mid-90s became a Baptist church, and what happened to him now - I do not know. Podemchik sickly. On the left in the woods - the old cemetery, AKO is still time, it is now almost "ate" the surrounding buildings.


5th kilometer. Left little visible square contours DC Rybakov. View after a blizzard, so little seen.


Fifth kilometer - the highest point of the urban road, then through a small hump main road down to six kilometers, where CUM. Now you see a state where Petropavlovsk "ochuhivaetsya" after a big snowstorm. A little road cleared, but life is already underway, people go to their various cases.


And here is the CUM "Petropavlovsk" at the 6th km. In the distance a little bit sticking Mishenkov. Pay attention to traffic lights.


Here it is, in all its glory :)
poslepurgovoy

This view of the Mishenkov from the same place, six km. Vio took the zoom here, so it seems very close. There is very interesting to climb - if the visibility is good, the views - absolutely enchanting!


The road to the new (well, relatively new) district - the North-East. In the distance, if someone does not know - one of the three "home" volcanoes, Koryak. And the right of it (not visible here) - Avachinskiy, the same "hero" of the eruption of January 13, 1991-th.


The view from the window in the twilight haze on a worker outside a bulldozer clears the living space for Kamchadals.


And in the end - a series of images at all on the other end of the city, ZHBF where I rarely called in (16 kilometers away from my area of ​​the eighth km).
At the bottom, along the "Malenkovskaya" houses built in the mid-50s, there is a bus route at ZHBF. And then - poluzanesenny posёlochek snow. Few visible curving path in the snow - it is the road to Zavoiko where based 1st Kamchatka flotilla KTOF (surface ships). There went to when I was 13 minutes from the bus ZHBF, and now I do not know. On Cape Lighthouse, I rode a bike, too, this way, a short way - via a pontoon bridge among military shipyard docks - not allowed.


Here they are some houses, listed on the most do not want. Kamchatka snow - it is you, my friends, not a pound of raisins!


View from one of the 5-storey houses on Wake up to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Snowbound "lake", which is closer - it Babya bay, and then - between the hills - in the valley of the river flows, tidal, flowing directly into the Pacific Ocean. Along it a couple of times I went. The ocean itself is also slightly visible, lead-blue stripe on the horizon. Here, in a straight line to a ten kilometers. And pay attention to homes obsharpannost ends - this is the case everywhere in Petropavlovsk. Such a climate.


Here's a he, Peter Winter (just east). He, too, was the name.

PS. Once again, all of the Old New Year!
