G – Reporting

Easy day today covered about 100km and just enjoyed the stunning Altai region scenery its very alpine and such a change from Mongolia only 3 days earlier!

Did some inadvertent but hugely successful bargaining for some veggies, as B got the numbers for '100' and '40' mixed up!

Bumped into a couple of Mongol rally teams after lunch and stopped for a chat and exchanged some tips as they had just come from the stans and we obviously had just “done” Mongolia, while we where chatting 2 more teams came by and stopped and we meet our 1st Canadian team the “Dirty Canadians” from Edmonton we introduced ourselves and said we were from Vancouver which was meet with “oh yeah we can tell by the accent :-p “

After we carried on for a few more Kms then headed down a side road and camped yet again by a river as tomorrow we were hoping to see some Altai attractions up said side road!
