John took some photos of the power lines and I took more
cactus flowers. We left our exposed camp, surprisingly only one
motorbike has passed us in the last 12 hours. So although close to
the road, very quiet. The yellow road was sealed with a dirt section
in the middle. We stopped on the dirt and visited some Inca ruins.
Shame we could not garner more info from the Spanish signs.Stopped and chatted to a couple of bikies on the roadside. One a german/kiwi guy was a bit miffed as they also tried to cross at paso Aqua Negro but supposedly a foreigner is not allowed to take an Argentinian registered vehicle out even in the company of the bikes owner!!
Back onto an Orange
road and traffic everywhere. Not nice at all. Finally turned off
crossed the river on an old railway bridge to be confronted with a no
fires and no acampar sign. However we drove to the end of the road
along the river and noticed a couple of tents on the way. We asked on
of them if they were camping the night and he said yes all good. On
the way back out we found a secluded spot on an old section of road,
with a little internet. A big thunder storm was raging and looked
like snow falling on the Andes.
