| Definitely
not a good place to break down |
Inhospitable hills | 92% of PNG remains uncultivated.. | The narrow valley floors can offer a little space for farming | The hills widen out a little and coarse mountain grass claims a foothold |

| The long road home. The track fords the river in the distance.. | Making roads here is about scoring a furrow on sheer mountainsides | The going gets steeper.. | A stream tumbles from a plateau somewhere in the clouds | Tiny villages nestle in the hills |
