11/19/2019: Touring the Central Highlands, 1972

     The Central Highlands of Viet Nam are absolutely beautiful.  Photos do not do it justice.  When you exited its southernmost province—Lam Dong, back then—you descended rapidly down a twisty section of Rt. 20, called B’Sar Pass.  A great drive, even in an IH Scout!

     Late in my tour in 1972, I drove my wife on a day trip from Saigon to Lam Dong and back, to look at my old stomping grounds.  Along the way, we stopped at this waterfall for some photos (photo #1 by me, #2 by my wife).  I write about this and other inter-provincial drives in my book A Spear Carrier in Viet Nam: Memoir of an American Civilian in Country 1967, and 1970-72, published by McFarland & Co., and available on Amazon.
