Salta, Argentina
Leaving Iguazu, we headed west to Salta, Argentina next. Salta is a base point for a lot of outdoor activities in the surrounding areas. We rented mountain bikes to go up to La Caldera and then up to a nearby dam to go swimming. After I was exhausted after 20 km of uphill riding (Salta is in a valley, so anywhere you go is up from the city), we discovered the road to the dam was closed and headed straight for La Caldera. We ate a late lunch at a ranch hotel restaurant where I enjoyed the best $3.66 steak I´ve ever had, and afterward they let me swim in their pool so I didn´t miss out on swimming just because the dam road was closed.

did you have to ride in circles for a while so that the first picture could be taken? :)
Actually yes, it took about 10 tries. For some reason dave insisted on riding in circles. (he wanted to prove his camera skills i guess) i voted for a simple straightaway....
Did dave fall off his bike?
