Those trees run pretty thick, if I were a sniper I wouldn’t set up in the middle of the thicket where my sight line is 30 meters at best all around. I’d be posted somewhere where I could lock down a good chunk of that cleared footpath where people are most likely to travel, like the 6th square from the top left.
That’s not a footpath, it’s a clearing or a small road even. You can’t see the footpaths in winter, they’re about a foot wide if that.
30 meters “at best”? Nah bruv. Maybe in the summer for that specific place, but as there’s a ton of birch there and such an open place, it’s probably a photo from the edge of a clearing on the side of a field or something. You don’t get birch in most of the forests, it’s just pine, and pine doesn’t really have branches on the low part of trees. So in a pine forest, you’d see way further.

Teaching Finns how to fight in wintery forests? We’ve a saying for that; “älä yritä opettaa isääs nussimaa”.
Which is why the Soviets came in winter. Any other time of the year had been worse. Spring which is mating season, is something not even the Soviets wanted their soldiers to experience. Summer where the Finnish snipers will be hunting for food for their youngs. And lastly fall, where that year’s new Finnish snipers leaves their nests.

I’d also pick the one above, because WWII era finnish snipers had a tendency to nest in a tree.
