The huge floodplain of the Ob River is a labyrinth of thousands of lakes, channels and small rivers, meter-high hummocks among continuous thickets of bushes make walking impossible, and boggy swamps even dangerous. The swamps do not begin immediately, first hummocks appear, then water begins to seep between them, the grass can reach two meters, in which anyone can hide, and soon you understand that you are not walking on the ground, but on a carpet of rotting plants that float right on the surface of the reservoir, the risk of falling through forces you to turn back, and a huge mysterious lake with floating islands, hidden from the eyes of nature itself, remains unattainable. According to legends told by old people from the surrounding villages, deserters who managed to get into the depths of a huge reservoir - Lake Sultangan - hid on these floating islands during the war #oldbelievers #all-terrain vehicle #travels #gaponov #taiga #taigaadventures #vasyugan_swamp #geotrophy #expeditions #riddles #abandoned #ob #siberia #deserters #war #echowars / @geography_trophy https://instagram.com/geography_troph... https://t.me/Geography_trophy
