Day TWO<\/strong><\/span> <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"These longer expeditions require some basic things to survive<\/p>\n

Good shelter, food, fuel to melt snow\/ice , foot care and attention and a positive attitude<\/p>\n

These essentials are interdependent and could make a difference between life and death.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Right, left or straight ahead?<\/p><\/div>\n

Travelling in a new part of the world requires a lot of dependency on the knowledge and experience of the local people.<\/p>\n

Some in the past have ignored this to their detriment.<\/p>\n

I am very fortunate to have the support and advice of some great local people from the Baikal area including Anna( friend of Elena) and Eugene.<\/p>\n

\"\"So far the unleaded petrol is working.. fingers crossed….<\/p>\n

Decided against the paint thinner.
\nNo white gas available in this area.<\/p>\n

Starting a new day soon…Day 3<\/p>\n

Let’s see what today brings….<\/p>\n
