Today was as beautiful as it was brutal.
The first 45km took 3hrs.
I’d love to say it got faster, but after 7hrs of driving we’d completed 115km.
But we started the day, as we did the day before, at Lake Bulunkul. One of the coldest inhabited spots of the former Soviet Union, with -63C having been recorded there in the summer.
It’s a stunning location though, and the mountains provide a natural wind block so it’s breathless in the morning and the water is like a mirror.
