Hardcore! The guys hang around sipping mint tea, but the girls are up the cliffs with the goats and a sickle, cutting grass. Not sure what its used for - probably added to mud bricks for building, or stored for feed when the donkeys are on the go and not close to grazing. Shared our bottled water with them, before they headed down the side of the mountain...loaded and bent over, where a footslip would send them headlong into the valley, they only crossed the road to get to the next goat track - the quickest way home. They were probably back before I got to the bottom, driving at 30km/h round the hairpins in the gorge.
