August 2004. In Bieszczady there's always a problem with getting there because of the distance. And they're not so wild and desolate as they're are called. Anyway it's not worth to get there just to reach Tarnica. 14 hours in different trains was just a beginning. Again - we wanted to do it the cheapest way as possible. We had 1,5 liters of alcohol (I still don't know why did we take alcohol to the east), actually more than water. But after the first stage of the trip from Komancza to a student base Rabe, a part of it we spend on paying for the night's rest, so our trip became one day longer. Mountain climate helps becoming sober, so we have lost just one day. Unfortunatelly I can't remember the next day, and after that we got to Cisna, where we have slept in a school, which was adapted as a campsite for tourists during vacation. Some of us were too tired to go any further, so they decided to go back home. Three of us went to the best part of Bieszczady - Polonina Wetlinska and Carynska - the view was quite normal, but easy to remember (because it's the edge of Poland), even without taking pictures. Only two of us reached Tarnica. One of us had food poisoning and thanks to the intervention of mountain rescue service, we have met again the next day - the day after 6 days of adventures.
