Bamboo Rafting

 

Two men went to the mountains to gather bamboo and deliver it at the market and their means of transportation was a raft also made of bamboo to navigate the river. My first time to see such an activity, and it is amazing to know that it still exist in this modern world.

  2. The river is probably still the best way to transport logs - they being so floatable!

  3. In some places, the old customs never change. Obviously that is the case here.

  4. Even when people use modern equipment, they still use rivers to float the product downstream. Rivers are wonderful for that.

  7. I've always said that too... amazing how they still do that in today's world, but it's really a smart way to travel when you consider the cost of fuel!

  8. Where was this? Amazing, they must have done this before, therefore seemed very comfortable doing it. What a great find.
