Cloud jungle I

The descend from the mount Elit was quite an experience. Only later our guide told us how many accidents happened on this track. We made 1000 meters down in 2 hours, while not moving more than perhaps 100 meters forward.

The kind of a pile of sticks on the bottom of the picture is a prototype Papuan ladder. It was semi-helical, extremely slippery and missed lots of steps. I took the photo while waiting for my friends to get completely down, didn’t want to fall on their heads with the whole wobbly contraption.

Irian Jaya (Indonesian Papua), Jayawijaya mountains – still some 3500 m.o.s.l.

    Wow, is this ever a beautiful shot. I love how you have used the mist to subdue the colors and give the photo a mystical look. Really well done. It sounds like an amazing (yet somehow unsafe) place to visit.

    The landscape on that landmass is stunning, but harsh!
    Whilst I haven’t been in Irian Jaya, i have been in the mountains near the border (around Tabubil).
    Such a wild experience! Well done!
