Altai Mountains, a two-week campaign
Will 73 6 photos and a quick video.
In his new job forced to share a vacation in half, and because 22 days of vacation is too little, came to mind, the idea that I wanted to carry out long ago. Namely hiking, what may be most important mountainous and underpopulated areas. What came of it read further.
Attempts to find a suitable time for the group without success, I decided to go alone! Experience hiking was not, but I know what a forest, live in the taiga edge. In general, acquiring the necessary equipment and test it in the field, I went to the starting point of the route. The benefit here is not very far away. Nafigator said, a little less than 3000 km ...
01
3 days' journey, and I'm on the spot. Giving up the car at the camp site, the existence of which I knew. I recheck whether all picked up their call that all is well and translate the phone offline. The next call will be oh as not soon.
02
Junk came a lot, even though I did not take too much. Sorry I did not buy a backpack is more, as a result of all the things it does not fit and styling was not very correct, especially in the early days.
03
Second day! Ora river. Got here in the darkness with a flashlight, the spoon still lost somewhere, had to eat in a tent peg from it just the sound of the waterfall. It was an unforgettable experience.

In the upper reaches of the river we collect some water and stomp to the pass. A river that become thin.
06
On the way, do not forget to arrange small halts, here on such wonderful clearings. Backpack seems harder and harder, and just ahead of the up and up.
07
Finally I got to the pass! This is not the shaman's staff that right, and I'm not a die that drin with this pole installed at the highest point of the pass and the tourists leave the ribbon on it.
08
Beautiful view. But here I make a small mistake. t. To. In this place there is no path, I begin to navigate by map and compass. Finding your way go in the desired direction. but ...
09
mistake was that it was necessary to take the left! I popersja straight. Straight through the swamp! All this vegetation is like a sponge in it you fail by 30 centimeters (we found the same there is still trenchant), all raw and go much harder.

Itog- raw feet.
11
I spent more time and effort going one kilometer to the left of the trail, though bypassing the meantime, the weather began to deteriorate.
12
Spoils! And I was already behind schedule, was the third day of the journey! During this time, I have not met a single living person!

Throwing bait into the water, I went to bed. I do not think that it is someone sopret. However.

I meet a group of tourists, their first question was. And we go right?
Here those on! During the conversation it became clear that the one who first went in campaigns visited a couple of times, and those two views for the first time with disastrous. Card forgotten in the car and the next day it was discovered. Irresponsibility! I wish the guys luck. Perhaps with them, nothing happens.

Here he is! This "shaman" staff!

Rainbow in the mountains!
71
In the penultimate day of travel I meet another group of tourists. The guys immediately became interested in the route, it turned out, they were from the Ukraine and they were not allowed in the border area, so we decided to go on the lake. I give them a guide, map, a satellite map and a duplicate. I already worthlessness, and they like the air.

at the very end of the route meet just such konyazhek grazing alone.

My joy knew no bounds when he saw the village, a little bit more and a little journey is over. I was able to.
