Ethnic Kyrgyz herders crossing the upper reaches of the Toxkan River near the border with Kyrgyzstan. Sheep/goats seemed to be the primary livestock, with horses, donkeys, and Bactrian camels as beasts of burden. In the background of this photo is the Tian Shan Mountains which form the China/Kyrgyzstan border.
