The front thermometer was sitting on -3.5℃ while the aft
one read 1℃. The grass was all frosted outside so we agreed with the -3.5℃ gauge.
Our
water taps had been drained last night and we had water for a shower.
Leaving
around 09:40 for another potential long day.
The over burden for a mine. The hole must be amazing.
By the time we stopped
for lunch, to cook dinner and to use good internet we had already
achieved 170 km.
The
roads were good ,not fantastic and we happily sat around 90km/hr, the speed
limit.
The
road up through the Urals was very busy but quite pretty with the
fir/birch mixture. The birch are all changing into their autumn
clothes which sets off their white bark.
We
got above the recently fallen (yesterday?) snow line but none was on the
road. At one point we did receive a smattering of snow on the windshield
but only for a moment.
An
overcast day but no rain.
Took
a while to find a camp the river was too drab all brown from the recent
rains. 
Found an old track up to a quarry and perched in a clearing that
had been cut maybe for hay?? Not very good fodder though.
