Остров Межной расположен в Кенозерском национальном парке  в Архангельской области. Территория парка представляет собой природный и историко-культурный комплекс, расположенный в юго-западной части Архангельской области, его западная граница проходит по границе с Республикой Карелия. В 2004 году Кенозерский национальный парк получил статус биосферного заповедника и был включён в Список биосферных резерватов ЮНЕСКО.

Кенозерье называют озёрным краем — территория Парка имеет развитую гидрографическую сеть и насчитывает 251 озеро, 67 ручьёв и речек. Каждый из многочисленных водоёмов Парка открывает свою неповторимую красоту в изгибах берегов, плеске волн, цвете воды.  Площадь Кенозера — 68,6 км², с островами — 99,4 км². Всего островов — 70! Берега и холмистые острова озера покрыты сосново-еловым и сосново-берёзовым лесом. Есть по берегам и пляжи с чудесным белым песком.

Inktober Days 19-21
Day 19: "Plump"
Tumblr media
Fat! Bear! Week! It’s perhaps the most beloved modern tradition to come out of a national park, when enthusiasts around the globe tune in to the Katmai webcams to see the results of a summer of brown bears gorging on salmon. We root them on, following their progress as they go from springtime skin and bones to mega-autumn chonk in just a few months. Watching these immense bears prowling Brooks Falls for leaping fish is so captivating that at some parks, during slow moments in the visitor centers, we would switch on the webcam feeds at the information desk. Rangers come from all different backgrounds, with all different affiliations and alma maters, but few things bring us all together like cheering on a wild bear eating wild salmon.
Day 20: "Frost"
Tumblr media
One of the privileges of working in northern mountain parks is the early coming of cool weather. Born and raised in South Carolina, few things make me feel more alive than a brush of autumn in August. I remember that first welcome moment in Glacier, when I climbed out of the government truck at Logan Pass for my shift in the high country. There was frost on the mountain slopes and a snap in the air. My breath fogged in front of my face, and the wind whipped through my park green sweater and jacket. Back at home, it was ninety-five degrees and humid, but on that morning, I swapped my flat hat for my fleece cap and spent the day bundled up on the Highline Trail, noting the huckleberries taking on their first tinge of crimson. I remember coming back to the tiny ranger station to find the woodburning stove crackling away, and I thought this must be what paradise was like.
Day 21: "Chains"
Tumblr media
My first thought for this prompt was a chain of islands, but as I brushed up on Channel Islands, I realized it fits even better thanks to the chain of life that stretches from sea to land to air. Underwater terrain creates huge upwellings of nutrients that form the base of a food chain in the kelp forests, where vivid orange garibaldi and massive seabass swim among the waving fronds. Seals and sea lions spin and dive before hauling out onto beaches in noisy rookeries. Above them on the headlands, rare island foxes—only found on six of these islands and nowhere else in the world—scamper after mice and insects, occasionally coming to the shoreline for crabs. And in the skies, bald eagles, storm-petrels, and cormorants swoop down to pluck fish and other meals from the sea. And so life goes around and around on this scrappy cluster of islands.

Incidentally, I'm trying to keep international shipping down by eating a bit of the cost myself, so I hope folks outside the US don't feel left out!
