Jyekundo(Yushu) to Dege

Following the Northern Tibet-Sichuan Highway from Jyekundo to Dege we crossed passes, nomads, pilgrims, yaks and prayer flags. Truly spectacular scenery along the way. Including Yihun Lhatso Lake, outside Manigango, the 5050m Tro La Pass, and the alpine valley leading to Dege. Tibetans customarily throw prayer flags out the window and chant (Yeeee sosososososo) and pray as they cross over mountain passes. From Jyekundo to Manigango we crossed four. The most amazing sight was the all female group of pilgrims walking to Lhasa.
