Tibet, China 中國西藏 (20 Jun - 4 Jul 2004)
chin:
Arid Land
Picture taken during one of the uphill battle. Not as steep as the hills that we needed to scale in the India trip. There is not much to see in the landscape. Just boring walks.
chin:
Lost
Lonely sheep on the road. The sheep we saw in Tibet were generally smaller than the ones we saw in India.

Nature's Wonder
In the first 1/2 day of the walking, there were green pasturelands. There we saw this lovely horse family. Our yak man made some noise and hand movement that lured the young horse to get close to him.

Rescue
Our trekking was actually more like walking. The "trekking" path roughly followed a dirt road. With this convenience, all our tents and supplies were loaded to a truck (except water which was carried by the yaks and followed us on foot.)
However on the 2nd day of trekking, the truck stuck while crossing a large stream. After two failed rescue attempts with passing 4WD jeeps, our guide left with a pass-by jeep to the nearby town to organize a rescue team.
We now needed to change our original plan.
Pictured here is our cook and his assistant rescuing supplies from the truck.
chin:
Resting
Taking a nap while the crew trying in vain to rescue the stuck truck and before the tents are being setup.
In the evening, our guide came back with a big truck that pulled our supply truck out of the water.
