Rovaniemi Aurora Hunt with Campfire, Finnish Pie and Berry Juice

The night starts in the evening and covers several spots, because one location is a bet and three are a strategy. The drive goes tens of kilometres from the city lights, beyond the Arctic Circle, stopping at places worth standing in: frozen forest, open ground, real Arctic country rather than a lay-by. The food is the Finnish standard for outdoor winter nights and none the worse for it: sausages grilled over the fire, Finnish pie, hot berry juice, cookies, marshmallows. It suits photographers and anyone who does not mind a late finish. The aurora, as the operator says plainly, cannot be hunted successfully every night.
