A photograph of a high-altitude grassy valley slope with a rocky, stony ground in the foreground. Several black yaks stand loaded with colourful woven saddle blankets, red and orange cloth, and packs. A man in a white shirt and dark trousers bends down near the yaks, tending their ropes beside plastic containers, a white sack and blue bags. A second person in a brown shirt, wide-brimmed hat and dark trousers stands at right holding a yak's lead. Prayer flags strung in multiple colours run across the slope behind them.

Scattered rocks and sparse green grass fill the background, and a short leash line runs from the nearer yak toward the left edge.
