At the end of summer of 1977, three people entered deep taiga to prove that even with minimal means to sustain life, you can come out victorious in a duel with nature. Participants of this unusual expedition took with them only what people usually take when going into the forest for mushrooms. For almost three weeks they wandered in the taiga until they finally managed to find their way back. For all those days they lived only on what the taiga provided them. This book tells about the adventures in the taiga, about its nature, and about the events that unfolded there.
