Trekking - David Noland

Follow in the footsteps of early
twentieth-century explorers on twenty treks
spanning six continents that range from Everest
Base Camp to a pilgrimage across the Pyrenees.
They include: the mysterious Ruwenzori mountains in the heart of Africa; five classic Himalayan
tours, including the Annapurna Circuit and
seldom-visited Snow Lake; an adventure to the
Tekes River Valley in central Asia, country
rarely seen by Westerners since the Soviets
sealed off the region in the 1920s; sunset from
the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, the
highest point in Africa; a hut-to-hut trek in
Italy's storied Dolomites; and a llama trek
through the surreal redrock desert canyons of
southern Utah's Escalante.
