I took a slightly different route to Hot today as the 1156 is pretty straight and mundane

There is plenty of room for a lot more yet, that truck is only partly loaded

I pick up the Ping closer to Hot and not much water in it this far south

A few tracks I try out soon turn to unpaved

This one on the other hand was a lot closer to full capacity than the first two were

This reservoir has never been accessible before but a road has been cut to it and lots of clearing has taken place here

Another one with barely any water in it

Riding back towards Chiang Mai and the weirs on the Ping improve the water level
