View from Gorny Vosdukh

What the?: View from the peak of Gorny Vosdukh
Where?: Yuzhno Sakhalinsk
When?: Oct 2008


Located very near Yuzhno city (on the east side), is a ski hill called Gorny Vosdukh. You can grab a cable car ride for 100 rubbles to the peak for a great view of the city. The cable car usually opens only after 12pm and is subject to wind conditions. Here are some pics from the hill.

A stone to mark the peak of the hill. Not really sure what is says...
