Road east from Umphang Kii village

I was going east trying to see how far that road goes after it ends on the map.

Some nice river crossings, around knee deep and full of rocks. I guess in the rainy seasons it gets pretty deep.








Seemed like a trail but soon disappeared.














What looks like a hiking trail continues on the side of the hill, looks like making a U-turn would be a problem, and as the sun was getting down I decided not to check it out and to come back. I think it's quite likely that the trail leads down to the river again, crosses it, and continues on the other side (as evidenced by the view of the other side I got when I got up a hill).








A trail is visible on the hill on the other side of the river. I think the hiking trail crosses the river and continues there.


Going back on a doubletrack around Umphang, I found this big open garbage dump. Pretty ugly but a lot of friendly doggies.

Thanks!
I really want to go there again someday and spend more time in that area.

 

Never thought about it... I guess I should. I'm contributing my tracks to the other forum's map which I use. But maybe if OSM got something on top of that another map won't hurt.
