We headed out the 2nd day for the Gobi. Chaagii assured us that we would have black road for part of it and then it would be dirt roads. She did not mention that, with little exception (we crossed a paved road at one point), we would be on dirt roads for the next 2 weeks. We were and then some. In fact, there were times when Jack wanted to switch directions so he just turned and made his own road. Sometimes there’d be one washboard road and when it got too bad, you just started a new one next to it. Absolutely NO road signs anywhere. We asked Jack how he was able to find his way and Jack jokingly point to his head and said "GPS" but after watching how he could navigate his 4-wheel drive across vast expanses of distance without even once looking at a map, I am beginning to realize that he wasn't joking. It was truly amazing.
