After breakfast, prepare for another day of trekking off the beaten path. Expect dense vegetation and breathtaking views at every turn. Pause for a one-hour lunch break by a beautiful spot, and if the conditions permit, enjoy a swim in the river. Continue southwest, keeping an eye out for signs of the Asian black bear.
