Broken bridge

We found bitumen roads near UB, but further out in remoter areas of the country road conditions deteriorated. This broken bridge was a challenge, but 1 our driver was willing to take, when faced with a 60km detour & no guarantee of a better crossing. These 2 teenagers, below, crossed before us.
We didn't realise they were carrying 2 calves until they stopped after the big dip had been safely negotiated.
We walked across & were very thankful our vehicle crossed safely.
Gotta love those Yaks, Ali!

  1. I love the texture of the bridge Sue, it looks amazing. I wonder if we will see that in a quilt? x dls

  2. Wow - that is just incredible Sue. The top photo looks like the mountain is in the midst of a toothy grin ... absolutely stunning stuff at the actual crossing.
