10-12-17 Mae Sariang 2 Go To Tha Tha Fang

[Captain_Slash]

Total distance 135 km

Lisa is back in town for a few days so its back to being her tour guide again



A nice sunny start









This dog didnt want to come close to us even when offered food

We arrive in Tha Tha Fang after a short annoying shower close to there

Lisa enjoying a bowl of chicken khao soi

Sing song time



I climb up the steps for a better photo point while Lisa goes for a walk to the river

The point where I am standing is where the soldier indicates is the high water level in the wet season

On the ride back the track was soaked from a heavy shower for most of the way to Mae Sam Laep.
Things got interesting on the slippery clay sections, here the truck couldnt get up until chains were attached to the rear wheels

The very large pot of chicken khao soi



Looking gloomy with a bit of rain











A brighter sky now thankfully

Does it look like they intend to pave from Mae Sam Laep all the way to Tha Tha Fang?

Not in my opinion Phil, the track is still the same as when I rode it some years back. Christian told me it used to only be a single track some years ago
