Since I was off a couple of kilometers from the usual trail it was a long walk to cover up the loss. I now stopped to consult
GPS receiver every fifteen minutes. I must find Huay Sai Yai river from which I knew the way to the Khao Laem sub station.
Left: Bees under a fallen but hanging tree trunk. At about noon Huay Sai Yai was found and I tried to walk
along the stream. I still had to pass several smaller streams and sometimes lost sight of Sai Yai.
Finally at about 1 p.m. I arrived at the intersection of Huay Sai Yai and another smaller canal which came from
the area of Khao Laem ranger station (Right photo). I took a rest to enjoy a shower.
Then it was one kilometer walk to the ranger station.
Left: arriving Khao Laem grassland. Right: Khao Laem ranger station.
On the 4 km walk from Khao Laem station to Huay Suwat waterfall I took the photo of
Khao Ron in the distance. Well, I had came down that far in one morning.
