Yak snapshots
Yesterday's link to the yak polo video brought back fond memories of my limited yak riding experience. I tried to ride a yak. I got on the back of the yak and stayed there for a couple of seconds before the yak shrugged its shoulders and I flew off. I tried again. Same result. I decided that yak riding wasn't for me. But, I managed to ride a cow-yak hybrid with little difficulty (photo left).
While I didn't last more than a few seconds on the yak, I managed driving a yak-drawn cart without much trouble (photo below).
