Description

Willie Makeit II, John, Dave and Drifter II taking a rest near Dogeibeyozet, Turkey with Mt. Ararat in the background. It is thought by some that Noah's Ark is located on the 16000 foot high mountain. They were getting close to the Iranian border where Esbere who took the picture would have to say good-bye. He didn't have a passport so he couldn't cross into Iran. Esbere painted the head of a mule and the earth on the back canvas of the wagon to leave his mark. April 18, 1972 the walkers thanked Esbere for his help and crossed into Iran.
