Annapurna Circuit, Nepal, 1999
A Nepalese woman sits in the doorway of a traditional building in a Himalayan hill town found along the Annapurna Circuit. The mountainous trail casts a 200-mile (320-kilometer) loop through a mosaic of scenic landscapes—including farmland, forest, desert, and tundra—around Nepal's 26,000-foot (8,000-meter) Annapurna Range.

Photograph by George Steinmetz
Clad in black abayas and sun-shielding straw hats called nakhls, women work the fields in central Yemen’s Wadi Hadramawt, an oasis on the southern periphery of Arabia’s Rub al Khali, or Empty Quarter.
Occupying a fifth of the Arabian Peninsula, the Rub al Khali is the world’s largest sand sea. Its 225,000 square miles (582,747 square kilometers) claim substantial portions of Saudi Arabia, as well as parts of Oman, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates. About a dozen Bedouin tribes still live in this harsh landscape.

Photograph by Sisse Brimberg
Campers await the start of a raucous national day festival in the town of Vestmannaeyjar on Iceland's Heimaey Island.
Held every year on the first weekend in August, this three-day outdoor festival began in 1874, when bad weather kept residents from traveling to the mainland to celebrate Iceland's new status as a republic. They held a celebration of their own, and the rest is history. Festivities now include live music, fireworks, and an enormous bonfire.

Photograph by George F. Mobley
Two mountain bikers cross the Kennicott River via a hand-drawn tram in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park. The primitive cable car replaced a bridge washed out by the raging Kennicott, and at the time of this photo, it was the only way (save flying) into the historical mining village of McCarthy.
意译：在两座山之间有二位骑自行车的人越过（Kennicott）河，通过手握住缆绳在兰格尔山脉的国家公园。原始的缆车替代了被狂风破坏的一座桥。在这幅图片可以看到，这是唯一安全的途经到达历史上的采矿村。
