A sad view of a formerly beautiful hill in the woods where Gediminas Castle is in Vilnius Lithuania.
Historic tales say that King Gediminas had the dream while hunting Bison in the forest, about an Iron Wolf who was howling on top hill.
Expositor (interpreter) said that the dream meant that he should build a castle on this hill. He did and today we have Lithuania's Capital city.
Today politicians decided to cut down the forest on the slopes, to expose the view of the castle on the top!!!!
The consequent soil erosion has called for emergency measures to save the hill.
The snow is covering the current eyesore.
