Thailand 12/12/13

The whole day was spent walking the area between 27km-31km. A whole host of species being seen with the addition of some superb scenic views. The highlight of the walk were some active Gibbons calling constantly, and with only brief glimpses it was a relief to have superb views of an adult and baby using us as target practise. At 4pm we made our way back down to Ban Krang campsite where before settling down, had a successful night drive.
