2 million dollar mountain

In Chao Doc, Vietnam there is a place called 2 Million dollar mountain. It is this mountain of huge boulders where the Americans invaded Vietnam. Apparently they spent $2million and about 5 years trying to capture it. They managed to capture it, had it for a month, the vietnamese attacked and the americans lost control of it in under 3 hours. We travelled there by motorbike and took a tour. It was really powerful. Walking through the tunnels underneath you could imagine the terror those poor american soldiers must have been feeling because there are so many places for the vietnamese to hide. There were marks on the boulders from the bombs. These shots are from our ride there.
You could also go and shoot machine guns and stuff like there...here is a shot of Deb in action.
