Something not right?

Description

[Moderator: actual information is present in OpenStreetMap]
In jinka, turn right to Bako area. The first part is gravel and slow go. You will drive trough the highland, really awesome.
You will reach the height of 2.000 meters after that you have a down hill road off 900 meters with beautiful view.
In this village you will find the new road.

Everybody is waving, scraming and very happy and the village green.
Wauw this is a totally other world the the Mursi area.

Latest Check-Ins

We did the scenic route today from Arba Minch. The road is not new but tarred, through the main passes. Unfortunately we had to turn around 30km before the turn off ecause the road washed away completely. It is still duable by motorcycle but not car. We could use an alternative road from Ashiker to Jinka.

Report Check-In

There is a new road from this point going in the direction of Arba Minch. However when I took it, the new construction ended at the mountain pass on the east side of the valley, and turned into a steep and rocky path that was no more than a goat track, and I wasn't feeling that sporty. The locals said there was no road from there to Arba Minch, so I turned back and went south through Jinka. On the positive side, the valley is very beautiful.
