Gherman Titov

Time is 1.48pm and we have covered 350km and had our lunch stop of grain and a cutlet with a small salad for starter.
We are hoping to camp tonight and need to get some provisions.
We passed the city of Biysk and also the town where Russia's second astronaut  Gherman Titov comes. We are supposed to be in these parts to pick up Mojmir expected on the 11th. But we are a few days early. We plan to head on towards the mountains and have a few days rest and do some fishing. The car is kitted with the rods and fishing equipment.
The area is known for its honey and there are vendors on the street selling honey and wild berries.
Just entered the Republic of Altay, over here the majority of people are Altaians and Altay shares a border with China, Kazakhstan and Mongolia. The scenery is mountainous and amazing.


The state highlighted in red is Altay.
