The smoke/haze is slowly getting worse each day, hopefully it wont be as bad as Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai are experiencing
Looking at yesterdays track on GE last night showed the possibility of this single track linking up with a dead end
At the top I find another Honda Wave
Looking back at what I just rode up
Now to ride down the other side
Linked up with what I thought was a dead end from yesterday
This track came off what I was riding yesterday but I didnt have enough time to explore it
Its pretty bleak and devoid of people out here
A truck suddenly drives past creating a nice dust cloud
About to link up with a track I mapped before
I cant believe it, the same truch has turned around and got me again
Now to go and search for that white chedi on the top of the hill I see most days
This track was being used last time I rode here three or four years ago
Even the old main track that would be the 4029 if they paved it further north has now become damaged and only used by bikes
This was a well used track before and one I have rode many times
Finally here its back to a decent track again
With its water crossing
All the old Pha Daeng mining complex has gone now and this looks an interesting place to visit sometime, today I am only interested in finding that Chedi
Now a nice new asphalt road goes up to it
This was here on my last trip up here when it was still a dirt track and before the Chedi was built
In the middle of the photo was another older mine that has been landscaped and planted with trees, its now nice and green
To the right of it no greenery now
Old disused tracks from when the mine was operating
I was up here I think three years ago but no Chedi back then
The last mine that was being filled in and landscaped on my last trip up here
Its usually lovely views from up here but sadly not so today
Writing on the Chedi
Inside the Chedi and its nice and cool in here
On the ride home I look in at the Waste To Energy plant that wasnt operational on that trip
Its working okay now
