Day three on the salt flats
Up early to get the sunrise across the salt lake. We drove around the island and across to the small island at the east point and set up for bacon and eggs. At his time of year the sunrise is quite quick and the sun rays race across the la
ndscape like someone at night with a flashlight.The next part of the day I drove south across the salt lake to a bridge to land. Quite easy to see, as there are markers and it is elevated a little with rock and earth. The road then goes south before crossing another small salt lake and train line. (We collected a sleeper for fire wood.) Camped in a dry river bed. The nights are very cold, -10c and dry.
