Herd of Sheeps Grazing in the Mountain
 
 
A nomad family drives a herd of sheep up the river at Lha chu. The western valley is also a trade route, providing access to the high remote valleys north of Kailas where nomads graze their herds in the summer months. A single sheep can carry ten kilos of barley or salt packed in woolen saddlebags.
