Autumn 2001 Nepal Trip: People (etc.)
I have far too many photos from Nepal to put in one gallery so I've split them according to theme.
Lekshet Gyatso, a Buddhist monk, at Jamacho, above Kathmandu
Sadhu near the Monkey Temple, Kathmandu
Our Liaison Officer. He made it as far as Namche Bazar!
Yak on a bridge
Our porters at Dughla
Anna making emergency foot repairs
Purna emerging from our Gamow bag. (He wasn't really ill, we were just testing it!)
Five of the Basque climbers at Camp 2. I still haven't found out if these were the five that died shortly after we left.
Me, standing at the bottom of the Khumbu icefall a short way beyond Everest Base Camp
I was lucky enough to see the Kumari, the living goddess of Kathmandu, carried through Durbar Square
Girls from Patan, in the Kathmandu Valley. They were curious about my camera
