There was probably just a helicopter landing area in San Thong since it was so close to Long Tieng and was probably located about 1000' directly north of that karst in the wide flat area with a few buildings .... @6:48 where your location dot is near that 90 degree turn you had to make before going up into the mountains. A lil thing I missed in the other vids at Long Tieng,while on the strip and looking at the karsts,on top of the mountain to the right (in the area of the Mouak Mt. marker on google maps,about 1500' west) there was another helicopter landing area and you can still see the outlines of earthworks there. Once I get the chance to move there I think I'll just travel,get a 4x4 pack-mule something like a van or pickup with a bed cap or a vehicle like the one @11:47 would be fine...lol.Would love to import my '68 Bronco,there's one in Bangkok,think it's yellow,white,and blue.Pack it up with water,extra fuel,tools,some water,etc. and just travel and live from it (if not against the law...lol).I've lived,played,and worked (logger) in the woods all my life,I'd love to be out there just traveling those mountains.That route 23? you traveled a lil while back,that would be the type of roads I'd like to travel.

@NowinLao 2 года назад

Thanks for the info and great observations mate. Yes, road 23 was certainly a great adventure, no law against you living like that here.. very few laws actually. 👌 Sounds like a great plan 👍 ..and yes, people have imported their own vehicles here 👌

Thank you for showing us a beautiful Hmong village. Laos is so beautiful away from the big cities. That village was beautiful with the mountains all around it. I am Hmong and seeing you go visit my people is special. I only remember little about village life. Your past videos about the airport, General Vang Pao, etc...were great too. One day, I'll visit Laos and see the beauty of it. The people might be poor but they are rich with the simplicity of life, humility, etc.... Keep up the good work.....

Sam Thong was built first as the base, but somehow it got moved to Long Tieng. I was just a kid and have very little or no memory of the reason why.

@kiabvaj5656 2 года назад

My cousin was born in Sam Thong 3 days before general Vang Pao was airlifted to Thailand from Long Cheng. My uncle was a nurse who worked for general Vang Pao, he and his family were also airlifted to Thailand. My father and his 5 brothers were left behind and they fought the communists until 1980. They made the long march toward Thailand.
