Day 24 - Ucagiz

Today, nothing happened.  Well, we walked the few hours into Ucagiz, but nothing else happened.  But this absence of obvious content creates an opportunity, as Fiona has been wanting me to provide more information on the track conditions under foot.  While the track conditions do vary greatly, the most common theme is sharp edged loose stones, up to the size of a person's fist.  These are very tough on both feet and footwear.  

An example of the most common form that the track takes.

NASA's Mars Rover test facility.  Note how easy the terrain that it is training on looks.  Bring that 6x6 toaster over to the Lycian and see how long it lasts.

Today's tortoise count : 2
