We walked up here and did a couple of things. One was look a these song-sa sites where they prey and burn cedar at these small altars, and there's 4 of them going up this ridge above town. And it was kind of interesting, certain families use certain ones, the lower two, every day. And the upper ones are more for special occasions. And the most special one is up on a pass that overlooks the Ming-yong glacier on the other side, which descends directly off of Kawagebo and so it's a sacred glacier off a sacred mountain. There's a real good view of it from the upper one called "Yakka." Yakka means "pass" in Tibetan. Also looked at the vegetation patterns. Did some mapping of the vegetation along the way. 1:06:20 Just for the record, we are sitting on a trail overlooking the village Sin-Ong, below which we can see the Mekong river, pretty broad, pretty fast, and pretty green. And here a row of one mountain after another and Route 214, that's the way in and out. Pretty much the only way in and out. One end goes to Tibet, the other goes back to Duqin. 1:07:00 Something you said a few days ago, that you were having fun for personal reasons. What were you getting at? Well, I love the mountains. I've worked and lived in the mountains all my life, all my professional career. So a chance to come here to the greatest mountain range on earth is pretty exciting for a persona how likes mountains. But also as a conservation biologist, a chance to come here and work on the most diverse temperate ecosystem on earth is also pretty exciting place to do conservation. Those were actually two of the things that drew me to the project originally when they asked me to come over. The third thing came later, when I got here and started meeting the people we were working with and met a lot of really sincere people who wanted to do good conservation of both natural and cultural diversity. So the opportunities to do conservation here seem significant and real, and that sort of coincided with my interest in mountains and conservation biology. But we've met some really sincere people, at all levels. From me personally from the provincial level gov't to county levels and village levels. It's really exciting. 1:08:50 Now you are obviously a mountain person. The Tibetans are mountain people too. Do you feel a certain affinity with them? I suppose. It's definitely exciting to travel in the mountains with them, on a romantic, more personal than professional note. But, yeah, it is exciting meeting and living with those kinds of people. Done it in South Amer... (Notes truncated)
