Sick of Apache picts yet?

Cause your gonna see alot of them by the time I get back to Utah. Here is some highlights:

 White caps of the Himalayas

 Check out the fields all the way to the cliff edge. The nearest mud hut was around 2000' below, imagine that climb everyday to tend your fields. Suddenly the Point doesn't sound that bad.
 Village made out of mud. Pretty typical, we marvel at the biuldings that have actual do have roofs other than mud.
Hojie plowing his field at 9000' above sea level on a 30 degree hill. (No RPGs, I checked)
 One big mountain
 Looking into Tajikistan, for afgans the grass really is greener on the other side.
 Tajikistan/Afganistan border... are we allowed in that country? Oops, here comes WW3
 Pretty cool little box canyon off the tajikistan border.




 Mother earth trying to swallow afganistan, I kid you not, the rock strata is at a 45degree angle to horizontal
 140 knots, 20 feet AGL, also known as a "panel check"
 OOOHHHH crap he's pulling up, guess I better stop taking picts and man the flight controls.
Nowhere to land... oh gods of aviation don't let my engine die now...
 SICK
 OF
 APACHES
 YET?
 Briar Patch

Hey look, its the back of my head.

By the way, did you hear that the #3 dude got his a couple days ago... :)
Hope all is well back home.
