I started from Laguna de Maule using variant 01B and then 01. Nice views from the passes on Laguna de Maule. I have joined RR at km 29.8. And followed to Carisales. Between km 42.2 and 44.6 grass with water and plants which made me allergic on my legs. In Carisales I spent about 1.5 hours with carabineros. I have registered and they prepared me lunch and gave me some food. There was un arriero who recommended me to cross the river passing bridge Melado (OH 03 km 38.4) through Rio Melado. In that way I did not have to cross the river Guaiquivilo. It was a really good decision. This option uses good MR. It was Friday so a lot of cars went for fishing or Laguna de Maule. With one of them I have crossed the river near hot springs ( km 58.8 of OH03 ). At km 80.9 RR I have joined the regular route. I have also registered at carabineros El Dial. Because I am walking alone all carabineros told me that for my safety it is better to register. Here I have spent a nice time talking with them. They offered me dinner also. When I have spent a night at the pass at km 102 it was a storm. The last days temperature is above 30 degrees. Near Laguna Dial I have met only arrieros. From the km 118.9 RR where I spent the night I took variant 04E - a nice place for camp with water from the lake before the pass Cordillera González (OH 04E 2.5/2029). Then I took OH04 from Termas La Zorra (38.6/1306). I passed the river Zorra four times - water above the knee (height 164 cm). From km 38.6 to 48.5 there is a good path but very often it is not accurate with the track. After crossing the river Zorra last time at km 48.6 it should be MR. But in fact it is km 52.5 which is a combination of CC+V with some BB. From km 52.5 starts good MR. I have met arrieros. And visited one man who invited me for a café near the carabineros. We had a good talk. I have reached El Inglés at 14. Finally I have put my tent near the shop. And the next day went to Chillán. I sent a deposit there with Starken.
