CDR Day 12-Sept 6

Still no broadband in camp tonight. From the Tincup camp we worked our way south. We found forest service roads that took us through Pitkin and on to Sargents. From there we traveled south on forest roads that allowed us t cross the divide more than once at places where the only way we knew it was the divide was to find a small (3”) placard on a tree or post. We arrived at Saguache and went west on highway 285 for just a few miles and jumped back on forest service roads that took us through the Rio Grande National Forest to La Garita and on to Del Norte. We had to do some mechanical work on one of the vehicles there and when it was fixed we proceeded south still in the Rio Grande National Forest to a camp site between Del Norte Peak, Bennet Peak and Silver Mountain
