Scary Trip to Doi Thon Viewpoint

Hi all

Monday the 21st of November turned out to be quite a day, it all started with an innocent sounding drive to a viewpoint.

Yes there were tails of a motorcyclist saying it was steep but there was a road to the viewpoint, wasn't there?

Here is a clue, it ain't on Google maps 😲.

But I did Relive the drive, possibly the scariest drive I have been a passenger in and I am pretty sure if we were not in a 4WD vehicle with a low ratio box getting to the destination may not have been possible.

Relive can't really fully give a total picture, there isn't a "scared sh*tless" setting but here it is...


As we climbed the "road" became steep and narrow;


But once at the top my adrenaline filled body was treated to some wonderful views;


A bit of a look around including the stature of the monks teacher;


I didn't notice until a was looking at my snaps that the monk had a wooly jumper on 😮.


It was amazing how quickly things changes with the cloud cover;


A bit of panorama;


And a local;


Then it was off back down terror road stopping to take a snap of the fierce giant;


And a quick look back from the base of the hill to the viewpoint;


And coffee 😋.


What a way to start the day!

I hope to vlog this as well if the shots out of the car are any bit like, but for now...
