No, Rasputitsa is two times per year, in spring and autumn.

Ahh ok, I misunderstood. Somehow I read the two sentences as a see-saw: First the mud comes, then in march the mud comes.. what?

Ye it really confused me too but thinking about it obvoiusly there is a mud gradient two times a year when it freezes some day, is how the next etc.

literal meaning: "messed up paths".

The cycle is dry, bog, ice, bog (summer, autumn into winter, deep winter, spring)

Rains come before the cold
