The road to the pass

This is the road to Sertavul Pass. That section off in the distance is the last part of the climb to the pass. On that climb, the truckers weren’t going a whole lot faster than I was.

Wednesday night’s campsite

Wednesday night was my last night camping on the Central Anatolia plateau. The night started out with a full moon and a completely clear sky, but by morning clouds had rolled in. I was glad to get out of there before it started snowing. This photo was taken Thursday...

Snow-capped mountain

This is a snow-capped mountain, the name of which I don’t know. When I passed by it a few walking days ago it was shrouded in fog and I didn’t see it. Today it’s nice and clear out.

Terrain is changing quickly

The territory between Karaman and Sertavul Pass changes quickly. The earth can’t decide whether to be a flat plain with little foliage, or a mountain with lots of evergreens.
