Verkhnyaya Toyma.<\/strong><\/div>\n
The village Verkhnyaya Toyma is stretched along the right bank of the Northern Dvina river and can be reached in summer only by a small ferry, which capacity is less than a dozen cars.<\/strong> We caught the last voyage and paid 150 roubles for a person and a motorbike each. Just 20 minutes later we rode down the curved metal ladder to the sandy pier.<\/div>\n

While a small tugboat was dragging a rusty ferry along the river, steadily rattling its diesel, we got acquainted with a local resident. This good-natured and sincere man's name was Ivan. He told us where we could stay in their village and many other interesting things about life in this rural area. When the winter begins (the water transport has been shut down and the ice hasn't appeared yet), people turn out to be cut off from the mainland for several days or even weeks. The previous winter had been warm so it hadn't been possible to cross the river for a long time. Even a hovercraft of the Ministry of Emergency Situations was used in order to ferry the people, who were going to visit their relatives for the New Year holidays.<\/div>\n
