Long weekend in Bieszczady

So as I've mentioned before, in the long weekend I headed to Bieszczady altogether with my 2 kids. We decided to climb Smerek on the first day. Fortunately weather was nice and trail easy. My daughters made it without any problems and after 2 hours we were at the summit. Then it was time to get down the other trail and get back to Wetlina by the road. Unfortunately weather crashed just during the last 4 km and there were no place to hide! So we were walking and walking and getting more and more wet. Finally we've arrived to first roof of Wetlina and hid there. Luckily good people gave us a ride home and we changed our clothes to dry ones.... it wasn't that easy, but finally we've made it.

On the second day I wanted to make the trail to Tarnica and get back through Rozsypaniec and Halicz. On that day weather wasn't favorable and we only made it to Tarnica and back on the same trail in the dense clouds and very windy weather. I believe it was about zero celssius degrees up there! Of course when we got back to the car, mountain became clearly visible and weather rapidly improved! There're mountains - you never know! Luckily my kids like to hike in the mountains and for sure I'll get back there as soon as I got some free time...
See some pictures from the second day I've managed to get when weather was better...
