Getting milk from a yacc requires a calf now & then.
A lonely cow won\'t do.
BTW yaccs can be quite bad-tempered in the lowlands.
Somehow they don\'t feel comfy there.
2000 meters ASL seems to be just so OK.

When I was in Nepals > 30 years ago (OMG!) for the first time,
I stumbled across a dairy in the Everest region (way from Lukla->Jiri)
where they made hard cheese from yacc milk. It tasted like Appenzeller,
probably because it was a foreign aid project from Switzerland. Making
hard cheese is easy and safe,
and it was even with bronze time resources. Just know-how.
A farm down the road started with sheep but switched to goats and one
lonely looking yak. They have a sign advertising goat milk. I\'ve been
meaning to stop to get some and also find out why they switched from sheep
and if they milk the yak (assuming it\'s a cow).
