CHINA. 2013. Altai Mountains, Xinjiang. Tuktun (77), who has spent much of his life making skis, hunting and trapping animals. Today he is retired and going blind. In the far northern corner of Xinjiang province, in the Altai mountains, one can find the last remnants of an ancient culture. The area is populated by a mix of ethnic Kazakhs, Mongolians and Tuwas, who handmake their own wooden skis in the same way as their forefathers thousands of years ago.
