On the the road to the Allai Valley, a Pashtun family carries luggage past trucks that are stuck in mud and landslide debris-the trucks are full of other families and their possessions traveling back to their mountan villages, Battagram District, Pakistan's Northwest Frontier Province. The region was one of the worst-hit by the October 2005 earthquake, and aftershocks and heavy rains continue to trigger landslides, which have hampered reconstruction efforts and the return of earthquake survivors to their mountain villages from the low altitude tent camps where many spent the winter.
