--- Quote from: BenRG on 27 Apr 2018, 02:29 ---Hannelore might be in Mongolia, in which case she is likely in a Yurt camp (look it up) and an external latrine is normal. Either that or she's in a wildlife preserve somewhere in the ConUS and there is a temporary camp where she and various undergrads are carrying out volunteer vetinary work. The light clothes makes me lean towards the plains of Wyoming or Colorado as the location. Mongolia is a high plain and would be cold enough to demand heavy riding leathers and furs that would make Hannelore look like one of Genghis Khan's warriors.

I would definitely vote for Colorado or Wyoming as well. That looks much more like a bison (buffalo) than a yak, although the yak is often confused for being a relative of the bison, and Hanners is unfamiliar enough with animals that she could easily confuse the bison as “some kind of yak”. We have them up in northern lower Michigan, but I don’t know of anywhere up there where they might have latrines that could possibly need shoveling out.

Yay Hanners!
The 'hoarse from screaming' thing worries me a bit.
Timemaster:
It may be the light clothing and the tan, but Hanners appears to me to be fitter and healthier than ever. I mean, look at her abs! Maybe, when she gets back, she'll have a sixpack. :-D
As far as we know, it's still late winter or early spring in Northampton. If Hannelore really went to the higher reaches of central asia, the climate should be quite fresh at this time of year. Maybe we had a time jump again?

Well, considering she's going to be cleaning a latrine without, presumably, hazmat gear, I'd say it's a step forward, really.

We've got American bison here, in Kansas, but I don't recall any of them having fur quite so shaggy. I'm not sure whether that's a yak or a bison, but I'm kind of leaning towards yak. Though the "hair" on the top of its head being a darker brown throws me off.
Here's what I think of when I hear/read the word 'bison'.
(click to show/hide) It's a big pic.
