This was taken in a remote area of Chumarleb (Qumalai) county in far northern Yushu prefecture at an elevation of 4100m / 13,450ft. Winters in this region of Tibet (eastern Changtang) are very cold with night time temperatures between -20C and -30C. The nomad family who lives in this house invited me in for some butter tea and boiled yak meat. Their yak can be seen grazing on the other side of the frozen river. This family lives in a house in the winter and in a black yak hair tent in the summer.
This website is Great! I will recommend you to all my friends. I found so much useful things here. Thank you.e
