I found myself climbing over a 5000 meter pass the other day, and going down the otherside wasn't what I expected. It was rolling rolling rolling all day long, and has been for the last four days riding. I guess I've made it onto the Tibetan Plateau, though I can't be certain. It's all pasture land and peaks as far as the eye can see.
The piece of geography above lasted for half a day. I spent a lot of time lying off the side of the road watching that sky.
Looked a bit like this from that perspective.
I did come down to around 4000 meters once and found myself in some southern Albertan coulees, except these ones were
green. Almost made me want to go home. As they say, the grass is always greener on the... oh.
