Chicken khao soi 50 Baht but not as nice as the other meal I ate here
I ate here again tonight
Just as I reach the paved section of the 3004 these poor bastards are entering the bulldust section but have wisely got their masks on
Now riding back and not looking forward to the bulldust again
It was a bit of a shock seeing her just wandering along right out here
It too becomes a hiking track just past here so no luck today reaching the Yuam
Back along the track and another single track goes off it so I explore that
Just past here the track becomes a hiking trail so its turnaround time
Even if I can get down there it looks like there is still a fair amount of water in the Yuam
This track on the south side of the Yuam is what I am searching for, now to find how to get to it as I have been told some of the UN guys drive through the river to reach the refugee camps from Ban Tha Song Yang
Now single track
Here the double track finishes
Finally I can see the Yuam
Another track goes out for a fair way
This is a camping ground
I leave the bike against the tree and walk down a bit as I am getting concerned about the lack of traction on those leaves.
I decide to go back as I am not sure about getting up again if I go any further downhill
The track turns to single track and gets quite steep downhill
Now to explore out the back to see if I can reach the Yuam river
But these got a bit camera shy, they were very chatty though
Friendly people here
In Ka Lo Kho but the school has a different name, the locals confirmed the village name so no mistake on the map
Still quite clear up here
It joins a track already on the map but a new track for me
I take an unmapped track I spotted a couple of months ago and finally I am on a decent rideable surface
When I was last up here a few weeks ago the track was being graded and I was hoping for a pleasant compact surface, I think instead they got lots of lorries full of bulldust to fill the ruts in with, its a slow tricky ride until reaching the paved section north of Le Kho
This is what its like at the end of the paved section of the 3004
