Highway maintenance team on Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Zheng Liang. "The road management bureau sent workers from downtown Dege county, about 70 kilometers from our station, or Garze county, about 150 kilometers away, to transfer 10 plastic buckets of water, each 25 liters, every four days. The water is just enough under the conditions that we use the same water to wash vegetables, our face, clothes and then our feet. Every month, four of our 12 members go to downtown Dege county to take a shower, by hitchhiking along the highway. We take turns in taking showers." Photo taken on Oct 15.
