Went through the very dry and very flat bed of a former lake, marked as Develi Ovasi on my map.

The temperature has dropped and when i woke up at midnight, the outer shell of my tent was covered with ice. Looks like winter is finally also arriving in Turkey.

Imagine such a huge beast hunting you, snarling and barking. Happened to me on several occations, but luckily they are pretty cowardly too.
