Renjo Pass - Gokyo Trek
|
Country: Nepal |
Description |
The
remote
valleys
beneath
these
peaks
are
threaded
by
ancient
trails.
Some
like
the
well-traveled
path
to
Everest
Base
camp
are
well
known
among
Western
trekkers
and
mountaineers.
Others
including
the
trail
through
Nangpa
La
between
Namche
Bazar
and
Tibet
are
known
to
Tibetan
monks
and
traders,
but
have
long
been
forbidden
to
Westerners.
This
exploratory
trip
is
our
attempt
to
offer
fresh
insight,
little
trod
trails
and
new
visual
perspectives
on
this
area
of
greatest
Himalayan
peaks.
This
trek
also
traces
important
history
of
the
Sherpa
people.
They
settled
the
region
in
the
late
1400s
or
early
1500s,
arriving
from
the
eastern
Tibetan
province
of
Salmo
Gang.
Sherpas
appears
to
have
left
their
homeland
and
crossed
the
Nangpa-La
pass
(18,749')
in
to
Nepal.
The
economy
of
the
Sherpa
Community
has
traditionally
been
agriculture,
livestock
herding
and
trading
between
Nepal
and
Tibet.
With
the
coming
of
the
Mountaineering
Expedition
since
1950s,
the
region
has
attracted
large
number
of
tourist
as
climbers
and
adventure
trekkers. |
