"Welcome to our Kolyma!"

1. Yap popular theme of travel. However, most of them are some one-sided - a southern province, combed or Europe. Enough to jump on the yugam. as they say "Welcome to our Kolyma!».
As is known in Russia there are no roads, there are directions. Especially not enough roads in the north. This is despite the fact that now the North is actually feeds the whole country (oil, gas, gold, platinum, diamonds - the list goes on). Despite chmto people work in the North, multiply the wealth of the country. And that means you need to supply needed goods. There have been simple: in the late fall when frosts fetter the ground in the direction you let a heavy bulldozer, and it "breaks through" a road that is called: a winter road.

It will be 15 images. Please do not break.





2. Walks along the winter road is a serious equipment: KrAZ, URAL, KAMAZ. Foreign cars are not maintained. Under a technology and people working here. This is mainly men aged "50". There luminaries, which under 70, and they turn the steering wheel to confirm the legend of the Siberian health. But the youth, unfortunately, not enough.
On the track there is no inspectors. Machines go without numbers and without inspection. Serviceability of the machine is fully on the conscience of the driver. A stall in a situation where "there 500 back to 500" no one wants.



3. Like any self-respecting road on winter roads are road signs.



4. Through ravines and river to bridge. Often in the spring swollen rivers demolished them, and people with industrious ants restore them.



5. Driving on winter roads can be found nepugannyh animals.



6. And this - "half". The gist of it explains the name. Initially, they were built in the middle section of the track. Here there is a supply of fuel, oil, running parts, food. If necessary, provide accommodation. And of course, a powerful bulldozer to clear the road and help those in need. There is a portable radio. Lives and works in the "half" is usually only one person. Can you imagine how the character necessary to have to live there for months?



7. Local kind of bus. It called the "watch" (with the accent on the last syllable). On such machines, people are overcome sometimes thousands of kilometers.



8. Dogs in the North are big and strong. But very friendly and affectionate.



9. Then I'll just post the landscapes that you can admire the beauty of the North.
