PARAMO GRASS on the back of this shaggy burro insulates a 

 pack of snow from the heights of Chimborazo which will be sold 

 for a pittance in Riobamba and used to make a sort of snow ice 

 cream. The grass will be used to weave sandals or belts. 

 Probably the woman's husband will ride the burro on the home- 

 ward trail. She will walk.
