"An injury to one is an injury to all — and we have all been injured enough."

The Socialistický Klub Černaruských Turistů was founded in 1973 to mark trails, organise walks, and serve the people of South Zagoria. We are still here. We are still doing that. The trails still exist. The mountains have not moved.

We do not know how many of you are out there. We do not know if anyone is reading this. We are broadcasting anyway, because the alternative is silence, and we have decided we are not willing to accept that.

The Club operates on the principles it always has: mutual aid, collective decision-making, free access to the land. No hierarchy. No membership fee. The Republic of Chernarus is gone. The ChDKZ is gone. The CDF is gone. Most things are gone. What remains is the land, the trails, and whoever is left to walk them. This is the South Zagoria Autonomous Zone now. It belongs to whoever is here.

If you are a survivor in South Zagoria — or anywhere you can reach from here — this is an open invitation. Come to Green Mountain. Or leave a message at one of the bulletin points. Or simply follow the marked trails. You will find us eventually.

Trail Report: Topolka Dam Circuit — Passable, Recommended
The Topolka Dam circuit remains one of the most reliably passable routes in South Zagoria. The forest section between the dam and Gorka is clear. The southern approach has some windfall across the path around the halfway point but nothing that can't be stepped over. Water from the dam reservoir appears clean — I refilled there without issue last week. I have marked the trailhead again with fresh red paint. It was fading. There is something important about keeping the marks up even when you are not sure anyone is walking the trail.

On the ChDKZ, and Why This Club Is Not That
People sometimes ask — or used to ask, when there were people to ask — whether the SKČT has anything to do with the Movement. It does not. The Movement believed that liberation required a vanguard, that hierarchy was acceptable if the hierarchy was correct. We disagreed then. We disagree now, though the point is somewhat academic.

What the Movement got right was that the land belongs to everyone. What they got wrong was almost everything else. We do not blame the ordinary people who joined them. Everyone was looking for something to belong to. We still are.

Zenit Relay Restored After Eleven Days of Silence
After eleven days of silence from the Radio Zenit relay, I climbed the tower and found a corroded connection on the secondary antenna. It is fixed now. Broadcasts are resuming on the standard frequency. I do not know if anyone heard the silence. I do not know if anyone hears the broadcasts.

I am going to keep making them. If you are out there and you heard the gap — I am sorry. I am back.

Marked Trails — Current Status
The SKČT trail marking system uses the same four-color convention established before the collapse: red, blue, green, and yellow. Markers are painted directly onto trees and rocks at regular intervals. If you find a faded marker, follow the direction and look for the next one — they are never more than 200 meters apart on maintained routes.

All trails listed in the events table above are currently maintained and passable. The northern routes into the Black Mountains should be treated with caution in poor weather. The coastal route between Chernogorsk and Elektrozavodsk is the safest and most consistently clear. If you find a stretch of trail that needs remarking, do it. You don't need permission. That's the point.
