Don't mean to scare off any prospective independent travellers - it was only 4 hours from Mestia to Ushguli in the newly inaugurated
marshroutka (public minivan). Some of the delay was due to a stop for the men to drink at a famous cross near K'ala; and then there was the small rockfall a bit higher up from that, in the section of road which I call "
Mordor" for its forbidding aspect. We cleared the rocks away with hands and shovels, all exited the vehicle, and Mikho drove it across the scary bit on a wheel and a prayer. Whew, going home.
