Szczurkowo I

The first part of the last trip. After visiting the borderpoles near Ostre Bardo I approached the little village Szcurkowo. The bordermarkers here are vey easy to reach, as the road from Ostre Bardo to Szcurkowo goes for some kilometers along the border.

Easy to reach. I parked near the road and walked in a few minutes to the border.
III-1 20140407 Area 2260
As you see the border makes an angle to the right here. To the left it goes to 2261, to the right to 2259.
A very broad strip here with a heavily used inspection road.
III-1 20140407 Borderpoles 2261
About 30 meters from the road. I just had to cross some bushes and I came near the strip!

The usual characterisitcs.
III-1 20140407 Borderpoles 2262
And here as well. Fron the road you can see these clearly. Easy for me: stop and go.
III-1 20140407 Borderpoles 2262 area
An open space between the road and the borderpoles.
III-1 20140407 Borderpoles 2263
Again I could park very close to the border! You would expect that such an easy accessable area was protected with fences.
Maybe it is on the Russian side.
III-1 20140407 Borderpoles 2263
Close up of the 2263 pair.
III-1 20140407 Borderpoles 2264
Close up of the 2264 pair, some hundred meters to the west.
III-1 20140407 Bareer at 2264
Still very close to the road. Not clear to me why here is a bareer. Maybe to avoid that strangers enter the inspection road? In the tree on the right there is again a sensor, but you can hardly see it on this picture.
III-1 20140407 Sensor bij 2264
A close up of the sensor in the tree. I came in its reach and it started to beep for about 10 seconds.
