The wind had died down overnight and we were up early, walking a good 3 miles in the still cool morning to cache 4 where we had breakfast. Unfortunately, I badly underestimated how much muesli we needed, so we are only getting a few mouthfuls each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On we continued, the path taking us largely over flat desert terrain, with the occasional excursions into the foothills of the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
