D15(3.22) 35KM  5000M

The morning is windless, and there's a light snowfall. Last night, I woke up several times due to calf cramps. Could it be that I'm lacking salt in my daily diet? I need to add a muscle massage routine before sleeping today.

Following the tire tracks to the riverbank, the tracks disappear into the river. The spot where they disappear, the river is thawing. I tried pushing the bike across the river, but the ice was soft, and after a few steps, it started to crack. I quickly pulled the bike back and changed my crossing point.

There's a thin layer of snow covering the river surface, and I can't tell the freezing conditions. Each step is taken cautiously. After crossing the river and not seeing any more tire tracks, I quickly checked the map and reconfigured my route. Soon, I found the tire tracks again and continued following them.

Timing for charging has to be precise. Every day it turns overcast in the afternoon, unlike the high, thin clouds of autumn and winter. Throughout the journey, the solar charging panel has only been able to charge during the two hours around noon. The electricity stored every day is just enough to barely last my phone a day, even with very restrained usage.

Two wolves are digging something about a hundred meters ahead. I accidentally coughed, and it seemed to startle them. They immediately stopped and looked at me alertly. I wanted to continue quickly and didn't want to linger, so I got off the bike and continued pushing. They trotted to my right side, and we observed each other from a distance. Both sides would walk for a bit and then stop to observe the other, continually confirming that neither had any ill intentions until we gradually moved apart.

Vast areas of weathered and fractured slate:
