Top of the World: photos from Nepal
Gidday VF, quite a few of the communities in your photos look like they rely heavily on growing there own food etc to survive, & accessing them using land transport would be very difficult. Helicopters aren't cheap to run, are the rescues/hospital transfers etc paid for by government departments, community funds or individuals?

Hey Heliduck
Yep, land transport is often by foot or horse or buffalo All local people rescues are self funded ONLY, plus they have to pay first before we mobilize, as too many have skimped paying when their relative dies whilst we are inbound, or they never really had the cash; so now it's pay first or it's a no go

Yes now with Manang the market here is ferociously competitive, hence why some don't do proper maintenance, but hopefully those guys will fall over soon & then we can have a market price correction
