Chaplyginsky district

Чаплыгинский район, Lipetskaya oblast', Russian Federation

Description

Alexey, a native of one of the villages of the Chaplyginsky district, said that the fog is the hallmark of his native places. Regardless of the time of year, it can suddenly appear and also disappear in a few minutes. Fog rarely lasts more than half an hour. But the travelers, whom he caught by surprise, it is better to make a halt. Despite the fact that the view is usually good, when the haze finally dissipates, you realize that you were going in the wrong direction.

"Once I fell under such a natural phenomenon, going hunting with my brother. We remembered the long-standing dispute: is it possible to get lost by walking through the fog on the compass. As a result, two adults and sober people, confident that they were going straight and in the same direction, when the fog cleared, found out that at some point they turned 180 degrees and almost reached the starting point. Just realized this, as the compass needle jumped, showing that we really got off the route.

And this despite the fact that our childhood passed in these places, every bump is familiar here, it is impossible to get lost. I've never seen goblins, I don't believe in their existence either, but something here clearly leads travelers. I think next time, if you happen to walk through the fog, try to turn your clothes inside out. They say it helps to remove the hassle."
