Conceived trip we had a wonderful - from Nska Biisk to train, then on velah on the highway to Ust-Sema, further Chemal, and from him to the asphalt Elanda, after the gravel road to the village begins Oroktoy, followed by the compactor pass, Lower Talda, Onguday, Chike-Taman, Yin, primed to Tungur, walking distance to Akkem, then again on the track and on Chulyshmanu to Teletskoje there to cross, and again in Biisk on the train.

By design was good, went a bit wrong:)
sunny morning we drove to my mother's problem on GESe not too late to train in Cherepanovo on the way met with two gopovitymi guys, but two Is not a crowd, so they were quite nice and we blabbed the whole way. Actually "we" is traditionally I Karpich. After Cherepanovo we decided not to wait 5 hours before the next train and moved under its own power to Talmenka.
50 kilometers flown for two hours with a small, wind was favorable, it is a very happy one:) Talmenka started to rain and we waited, eating a delicious hot meal. Then again, by rail, we drove to Barnaul. It was getting dark. Train to Biisk was only in the morning and we decided to get around the city, it took a little time. Two local women are prompted for what to see and it was done in 40 minutes. However architecture I liked the provincial merchant town of the late 19 th century there was very clearly. Since the city was dark, cool and damp, we have decided warmed overnight at the station. So he decided, and a resident of the Kosh-Agach region, who lived at this station is the third night. During the day he was treating his teeth and dreamed of returning home quickly. From him I learned that the Kosh-Agach means "farewell to a tree." Half of the night, we tell about another nod in uncomfortable chairs.
convenient morning train arrived to Biisk. Sleep like unbearable, but I had to drive at least half a ruble before you get to the parking lot. Driving on the highway is very sad - every now and then come across downed animals, mostly dogs. One was shot down before our eyes. Fortunately, not to death, the driver has hooked her bumper, I think that broke the hind leg. A dog with a squeal disappeared into the countryside. The driver, of course, pretended that nothing had happened and left. A dog's owner went to look for her. The village is big, the vet there should be. It is a pity that I did not know how to put the bus, terrible feelings of helplessness, when a number of animal suffering.
Before the first night was hiked 56 km 3 hours 15 min. We stopped in a mosquito kingdom.
were thousands of them out there and we - an easy target:) But the next morning we waited for good luck - from the river blew a strong the wind blew and the gnats, and the baking hot sun and up to four hours, we sunbathed, swam and drank mead, waiting out the heat. In a way we found the rain and we passed underneath our 3 hour journey and 53 km, we stopped at fishing, it is quite close to Aisquith bridge.
fourth day of the trip was a rush от костра, где мы сушили вещи, до палатки, где мы их спасали от нового дождя.
Пятый день был бесконечно светел. 66 км пролетели незаметно за 3,5 часа и мы stopped in Askat in Natalia Feodorovna, mother of my girlfriend who lives in New York. NF lives almost in a model hippovskoy commune among people engaged in creativity, and yoga. Everybody is happy - the garden blooms, the air is clean, fresh water:)
Our next day was the best way for the journey. We just drove a 36.5 km but found the awesome wild place on the shores of the Katun.
And the estate of the noble don, km 3 of our town
