1000m up. 1100m down. Back to where I was this time 48 hours ago. Bolevan Plateau – tick. It was nice – nice to get into cooler climes, nice to cycle through some greenery away from Highway 13. It was also hard work. I’m ready for the main road again.

The looming clouds
For the first time on my trip I have saddle sores. Ouch. All this sweating climbing a kilometre into the sky has made some parts very tender. The climb was constant but never terribly steep. It was a peaceful road and very pleasant.

The morning road
Lots of coffee, and a big waterfall.

The waterfall
Oh, ouch! But hopefully, the scenery is worth it. That waterfall is stunning!
It was a nice waterfall next to a restaurant where they were drilling, building a new extension. You are definitely not by yourself there.
