Latest Check-Ins
Checkpoint was deserted when we arrived so we drove on. From the top of the pass until this point the road was really bad. An outer section on a hairpin bend was destroyed so we were forced to take the corner on an inside line and our Landcruiser barely fit. The day before it rained and the water was still running on the road on many sections. After the checkpoint it gets better but some sections are still pretty bad.

The 3 km between this check and the TJ border-post was 30 may very slippery. Snow and rain made the clay track a dangerous place to ride. If you have time, do not go during rain!
