Off-map driving SW of Otavalo

On Sunday - we took a chance on some more off-map driving. The road/track was very iffy in parts, with deep ruts and narrow track for tires. But, Ole is an excellent driver and we got through a couple of harrowing spots. Thank God! - because there was not another soul on these paths. We might still be sitting there, if we had gotten stuck!!!

Mojanda Lake (18 km SW of Otavalo)


The dirt track was generally dry, except in this spot.
Little Mojanda Lake





Once we got to this side of the Black Ridge we were on a
fairly level road again. But the climb up the backside of
the ridge was definitely dicey.



This is the road we should have been on. But none of the roads
were on the map, so unfortunately we missed it. Nevermind - it
was a great adventure.

  1. Do you ever realize that people visiting your blog and your great experience in life, how we might be envious of both of you? But at the same time, we are so amazed at your blog and seeing another part of the world that we might never see in our lifetime! Enjoy, and there is no doubt you both are enjoying this time in your life.
