June 1989. Kuhmo, Finland. Agfa Agfamatic 100 camera (126 film format), Kodak film.
Probably near Rajakangas border crossing point. Stern warnings against approaching the Soviet Union. Nowadays, they still have the warnings, despite nobody in their right mind wanting to go to Russia in the first place, har har har.

Reading my finland guide before sleeping, and lol

"Break for the reindeer!
North of the Kuhmo-Oulu line, large signs say that you are in a free roaming reindeer zone. The finns are positive: reindeer are the stupidest animals of the Creation. If you come up by car, it will always manage to find the most irrational move, as if it wanted to put all chances to die on its side. Keep an eye on the sides of the road, especially at dawn and dusk."

An individual was apprehended while attempting to cross from Finland into Russia on foot in October, the Finnish Border Guard said in a report released on Wednesday.
According to local newspaper Kuhmoinen, the would-be border-crosser was a young Bulgarian man.
The Kainuu Border Guard said that it intervened in a "suspected state border crime" in the eastern municipality of Kuhmo. The man was found near Jonkeri, a lake some five kilometres from the Russian border and 50km from the centre of Kuhmo.
Based on a tip-off from a member of the public, a Kainuu Border Guard patrol found a foreigner on foot "whose intention was to cross the national border illegally from Finland to Russia," officials said. They did not specify the date of the incident or details about the individual.
The man was detained and a preliminary investigation launched into the incident. The Finnish Immigration Service (Migri) sent the man back to his home country and banned him from entering Finland for three years.
This was one of eight suspected crimes uncovered by the Kainuu Border Guard in October. Besides hunting violations, these included two minor state border offenses further north in Kuusamo, and unlicensed driver at the Vartius border crossing point, east of Kajaani.
