4 guys from Winnipeg, MB, trek from Lukla to Everest Base Camp going through Namche Bazar, Gokyo Ri, and the Chola Pass. Mountainmen: from Prairies to Himalayas I do not own or take credit for the song "the Voiceless" by And So I Watched You From Afar. Special thank you to the wonderful people of Nepal who not only guided us but protected us from serious harm. This wouldn't have been possible without them.

Team J'aime Québec Adventure Nepal with Grover 2012 The Langtang trek takes you through forests, farmland, villages and high Himalayan mountains. The deep gorges of the Bhote Koshi and Langtang Khola are thickly forested with rhododendron, oak, maple and alder. The stretch of forest around Ghoda Tabela in the lower Langtang Valley is inhabited by the red panda, a rare and threatened symbol of a healthy Himalayan ecosystem. Other animals common to these forests are wild boar, Himalayan black bear, ghoral, grey languor monkey, leopard, Himalayan thar and musk deer, found in the higher elevations. The spectacular view of the high mountains from Chorkari Ri is one of the highlights of the trek. Most of the people in this area are Buddhist. The Upper Langtang region is inhabited by people of Tibetan descent, whereas the villagers of Dhunche, Bharkhu, Syabru and further down are the Tamang people.

Episode 168: The Kangshung Face [36:43]
Third Side's A Charm. This morning Everest finally revealed her last secret as we were able to get a clear view of her East Side, the mysterious Kangshung Face. The weather was as clear as it could possible be and the white snow covering her flanks looked dazzling in contrast to the deep blue sky. We call this tallest mountain on the planet by three names.

In general, the local peoples surrounding the world's tallest mountain call her by the Tibetan name of Chomolungma or Qomolanma. Of course Chomolungma means different things to different people. Some believe it to mean "Goddess Mother of Snows" or "Highest Mountain". I've also heard that it means "Big Hen" as in a female chicken with it's feathers all puffed out.

Whether you call her Everest or Sagarmatha or Chomolungma, the tallest mountain in the world has 3 distinct sides (the South Face, North Face and East Face) and is therefore large enough to accommodate all of them.
