Three hippies set up their campsite in a forest near Gauja, Latvia, 1982. A man kneels on the ground at center and works to set up a firepit.

Beyond the small clearing in the midground, several hippies sit in a circle at left. At right, a few hippies loung on the ground. A tent is pitched in the backgroud at center and farther back another tent stands at left. Trees rise in the distance.
