Life conditions: Walk or die ...

In this 13.000 feet high desert, good pastures are scarce and distant. Shepherds must walk long distances to find their llamas and goats and bring them into a new pasture.

They must keep on walking. 5, 10 miles per day. Sometimes 13 miles.

And walk back to the shelter before nightfall.
