I often encounter 84 year old Pempa during the course of my day. He lives on the outskirts of the village on the way to Leopard Camp. Yesterday I took this image as we were both crossing a massive landslide, not a place to linger. I was on my way to study wildlife activity in a valley a few kilometres away, Pempa was on his way to his buffalo after having collected fodder, these loads are often around 40 kilograms.
Life isn't easy here...
