If you look very closely at the footpath in the middle of the photo, near the the ridgeline, you will see 4 or 5 farmers plodding their way up to the top. This is the daily routine if farming is your occupation here. Walk these trails, get to your field where you do the actual work you came to do, and if you harvest any firewood, or crops, carry those back on this same trail In fact the farmers you see here are making their way home in the late afternoon. When they get home they will then have to cook dinner for their family. Exhausting. I just had a look at some research that showed that women in these communities work on average 15 hours per day.
