Hoffmann, Fritz. Tourist poses for a yak-back portrait. Photograph. National Geographic: 1.
The May 2008 issue of National Geographic magazine that is devoted to China is necessary to purchase. I could not pass the first page without thinking about the China 2007 field study trip. The bottom of this page has a photograph of a tourist riding a yak in China at Qinghai Lake. She might have been embarrassed since she is covering her face while riding the yak and wearing a borrowed Chinese rob and headpiece. Those of us who went on the field study trip remember Rosemary’s experience riding a yak and searching for a tail. This photograph is a fond memory.
