Description

Amid all the foreign adventurers that throng to Nepal to scale the world’s highest peaks there exists a small tribe of mountain people at the foothills of Himalayas. Sherpa tells their story. It’s the story of endeavour and survival at the roof of the world. The story dives into their culture and tells of their existence at the edge of life and death. It traces their story pre- and post-mountaineering revolution, their evolution as climbing crusaders with never previously published stories from the most notable and incredible Sherpas of the last 50 years. This is the story of the Sherpas.
