Salar de Uyuni
16 Nisan 2024, Bolivya ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
Finally take our leave of Uyuni and head north into the wind. Short ride to the entrance of the Salar. Check into our salt hostel and then set out on bikes onto the Salar. Edge is pretty swamped so opt to rent Welly boots. Plod across the water and mush until we hit the drier salt surface. The salt flat is huge! Crunch along amongst the tour jeeps. Stop for a picnic and take the required naked photos with bikes. Ride out to a hotel and then back as the sun sets. The mirror effect on the water is incredible. Great night sleep on our salt bed.Okumaya devam et

Stomach issues caught up with me after plaguing Doug yesterday. Slept for a good part of the day. Ventured out for a bit in the blustery sunshine. Nice vegetarian dinner at Llama Cafe.

A wild jeep ride
13 Nisan 2024, Bolivya ⋅ 🌬 18 °C
Knowing our limits, we opted to catch a ride to jump passed the sandy, rocky ripio. Our gear went inside the jeep and our bikes on top and off we went. And unexpectedly, we went along the lagunas - a route we never would have taken. Beautiful scenery - snow covered volcanoes on both sides, beautiful lakes with flamingos, herds of vicuñas and llamas. And the “road” went straight through the desert. (Sadly no pictures). Quite the ride and we made it safely to Uyani.Okumaya devam et

After the last few brutal days, opt to stay put. Do ride a rough road down to the laguna to see the flamingoes. And of course the herds of alpacas. Beautiful place, damn hard to get to.

12 Nisan 2024, Bolivya ⋅ ☀️ 4 °C
Wake up nice and cozy but head out to watch sunrise over the geysers. Beautiful sight - even with the early morning tourists. Slowly pack up and head out of the geyser basin. Mechanical issues slow us down and the road turns to washboard and sand. Very difficult riding - and so we push. Slowly cover the 25k back down to 14.5k and a tiny town by Laguna Colorado. Check into the hostel and have a blazing hot shower and nice pasta dinner.Okumaya devam et

Onto the “geezers”
10 Nisan 2024, Bolivya ⋅ 🌬 9 °C
Morning sunrise over the laguna as the tour jeeps pour in. Decide to go the harder route so that we can sleep in the geysers (or geezers as our Brit friends call them). Relatively easy start and then we climb - heading to 16k feet. Winds kick up and it gets chilly. Fun factor drops significantly. Make it, barely, to geysers. Set up and collapse. Warm floor of the tent keeps us inside as the temperature drops. Wind dies down and listen to geysers blowing and mud pots bubbling.Okumaya devam et

To the thermal springs
9 Nisan 2024, Bolivya ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Wake to find out water bottles frozen solid. Manage to thaw in the sun. Spy two cyclists- first in quite awhile. Meet Sam and Kate - a Brit couple heading our way. Pack up and find our way back to main “road”. Very dusty but relatively easy dirt road. Her passed by many jeeps porting tourists along the lagunas and volcanos. Reach 15.6k and cruise down again to Laguna Chalviri. Check into hostel and head for thermal bath. Kate and Sam have beaten us there.Okumaya devam et

8 Nisan 2024, Bolivya ⋅ 🌬 10 °C
Beautiful but cold morning. Steep start means we warm up by walking. Altitude is a real thing. Slowly make it to 15.1k, our 2nd drop and the border. Very chilly eventhough very sunny. Breeze through Chilean side and bump down 5 km to Bolivian border. Have to buy our visas which take quite q bit of time. Enter Bolivia and head around lake toward our camping destination. Flat tire slows us down and we finish the ride in the dark. Set up inside an abandoned building. Sleep back down to 14.4k feet.Okumaya devam et

Pack up and leave the lovely town of San Pedro behind as we head into a wall - the Andes. Our route looms ahead as we have an easy flat start. Climb and climb and climb - reaching 12,800 feet. Find our 1st food and water drop. Watch sunset and crawl into tent. Late night fight with a zorro/desert fox.Okumaya devam et

Though the day didn’t quite go as planned managed to set ourselves up for our climb and enjoy a walkabout. Doug took a taxi to leave 2 water and food drops for our 7500 ft ascent. We then wandered around narrow canyons and sandstone dunes. Nice dinner outOkumaya devam et

A very salty swim
4 Nisan 2024, Şili ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
Biked across the desert to get to Laguna Cejar. Lucked out and got to lake between tour groups. Quite fun bobbing in the water. So salty. Fortunately could rinse off before riding back. Made dinner and then off tonight a 11:00 pm star tour. Pretty impressive!Okumaya devam et

Spend some time exploring the cute, but touristy, town. Sky is amazingly clear and mountains seem to be in every which way. Walk along tiny Rio Grande to pukara de Quitor. Climb amongst ruins and monuments and crazy views. Bodies seem to be adapting to altitude.Okumaya devam et

Plans for an early start disolver with a flat tire. With the daunting task of 60 miles, 4400 ft climbing to an elevation of 11,200 - I opted to get started. The gradual climb did keep any impact of altitude to a minimum. The more barren landscape did give way to more close ups of mountains and sandy crevices. Waited at 45km for Doug and lunch and finished the climb. Amazing views as we plummeted back down into the valley. As the sun went down the colors became amazing. Barely managed to get to town before dark - exhausted. Found a hostel, drank a beer, had a shower, ate some food and crashed.Okumaya devam et

Lovely sunrise over the desert. Scenery remains boring until we crest a hill and see snow capped peaks in the distance. Manage to find a tiny spot of shade to rest. A kind truck driver pulled over and gave us 2 big bottles of water. Finished the ride to Calama. Opted to stay the night in town. Nice burger to fuel my iron levels. Currently at 7500 feet.Okumaya devam et

Hit the road after filling up with water at the rest area. The Columbia’s woman who worked there was quite taken with us. Fairly boring scenery. Eventually distant mountains emerged. Stopped by old town for lunch. With favorable wind, quickly covered last miles to Sierra Gordo. Found our quiet oasis to pitch our tent.Okumaya devam et

Settle in for 8 hours, covering what we had done in 6 days on bikes. Arrive in Punta Arenas without breaking a sweat. Manage to quickly secure bike boxes and find our hostel.Okumaya devam et
