Winds are strong on Polar Ural, so a
wall from snow bricks should be built better then this...
|
We experienced a bad
weather with snow and rain during the whole second day. While
waiting in our, Nenets arrived on their reindeer pulled
sledges. Our mood was several times better suddenly.
|

|

|
They said they had tents about 8 km
from us and invited us for a visit.
|
The weather was great from
this day and we began to go accross neverending plains.

Camp of Nenets.
|
A tent of Nentes, called "chum".
|

|

|
The whole camp is moved using a
sleigh pulled by reindeers. During winter, these nomadic Nenets stay in
the south in taiga forests with plenty of wood. During spring, they
move to the north, to Kara sea, where they stay during summer (there
are fish there and it is not so warm there, warm + mosquitos are bad
for reindeers).
|
Clothes and boots of Nenets are made of
reindeer skins. Everything is decorated by colorful embroidered
reindeer skin stripes on many places.
