| In 1977, eighteen cavers from mostly the SW area - Mendip, S.Wales and the Forest of Dean - set out for the area above Palangan - about 75 miles west of Kermanshah and at about 11.000 ft. Since we bought an old Bristol Bus and drove there, it proved to be quite a trip - but somehow it proved valuable since by the time we got to that mountain we had become a somewhat ragged bunch - more suited to some Spaghetti Western - ideally prepared though for 2 months of sparse existence living in conditions that even the mountain Kurds found difficult. see here for more info. The thumbs are in more or less chronological order and will link to the next image. I've added a brief description on each image page. |
