Georgia, svaneti - forest fire

The second morning of my eight-day trip. 13th august.

we were following the path, to the top of Koruldi, when we noticed a smoke behind our back on the slope of Banguriani mountain.
The smoke was becoming stronger slowly and we rang to Mestia. As it turned out there was fire in the forest and rescue squads were coming from Zugdidi. At the end of the day it became neccessary to call for helicopter and so they extinguished the fire in the forest of Banguriani. On the photo alpinist Giorgi Enuqidze.
