Wow. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Thank you so much for writing to us and sharing. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
I have email friends from some very isolated places on the Earth,but your photos are so exotic and strange to me that they are difficult to comprehend they are so - well forgein. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I will try to find Inta on Google Earth.

Please continue to write in and share with us. I think we would love to hear about the native clothes and camping gear from your area. Reindeer skin tents - now thats not ultralight! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> but then if you have a tank then weight isn't as important. I have to admit that few of us have ever used a tank to reach a traihead, but with a tank you wouldn't have to stop at the parking lot if you felt like driving in - might be nice to camp in when in grizzly bear country.

Do you know the GPS coodinates of INTA?

You asked about our native Americans - (Indians). There are large reservations where Native Americans live. They are generally not the traditional lands of those people though. They were moved by the US government to worthless desert land after taking their homelands. The indians did not know how to live in the new lands since their lands and way of life were destroyed. So the government built them "pre-made" houses. They are now soverein nations within the united states and we treat them much better now. Now they are citizens. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Your english is quite good. Says a lot for the soviet school system. Americans cannot write in Rusian. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
