It's not snow, it's salt!


Still Day 1 of the tour and after a short stop in the salt mining town of Colchani we took the 4wd out onto the worlds largest salt flats. Here the salt is dug from the plane into piles weighing a ton each, and left to dry in the sun before transported to the refinery. It really did feel like we were surrounded by snow.
