Awesome pics and amazing spot by the way.

Thanks for that FenianEel...I, who is normally such a pedant, missed that.

Interesting patterns on the landscape where the snow melts.



Look at how much socialising & exercise we forgo because we have plumbing!



A crowd gathers wherever the Mi8 lands...they used to shoot at these!

Do you use local carrying contractors, their vehicles, and operators? The photos tell me the transport operation is pretty third rate.

What are the gradients, curve radii, distances beween clean high volume refueling, driver rest stations and other necessities?

Brian,

I think your view on necessities probably does not translate....... in the 'world' that most of the world.....lives day to day in....

A picture speaks louder than words. I think this photo will probably give you the answer to your questions:

Or as the Septics call them, "Meals Rejected by Etheopians".

This tower was on the ridge on the other side of the river from where the Mi8 landed. We asked the locals who it belonged to....the Chinese...from some centuries before. Unfortunately we did not have the time to investigate more closely.



As we flew away in the helo you could see another 5 of the towers spaced along the ridge above the river....it was probably a trade route of some past significance.

I commented earlier in this thread after seeing that and other of your pictures that your transport operation is extremely sub-standard and you need Australian rough country road train expertise. Oz road operators and logistics people would be running triples, doubles, and b-doubles, b-triples, and b-b's in that sort ofterrain subject to the aforementioned gradients and radii. If no height restrictions could double deck the containers. you provide he protection and shooters and I am sure the Oz ransport industry will do a better job than what you have pictured.

Brian I think the thread title was TIC...
