Mt. Everest

Known as Sagarmatha in Nepal and Chomolungma in Tibet, Mt. Everest straddles the Nepal-Tibet border and over the years has seen many triumphs and far too many tragedies.

There's nothing like the thrill of seeing Mt. Everest in person. If you're not a climber, you can still trek up to Base Camp or other places with a good view. On a really good day you can even see the mighty mountain from certain places in the Kathmandu Valley. I think my favorite vantage point (since I'm not a climber) was flying over the Himalayas enroute to Tibet!

Touching My Father's Soul 

by Jamling Tenzing Norgay

"I climbed Everest so that my children wouldn't have to."

Ever since Jamling Tenzing Norgay's father, Tenzing Norgay, spoke these words to his son, Jamling had been seized by a passion to follow in his father's historic footsteps -- to step onto Mount Everest's icy skin and learn the lessons she has to teach.

In a spectacular and mesmerizing narrative, Jamling Tenzing Norgay, the climbing leader for the IMAX film expedition on Mt. Everest, details the ill-fated 1996 summer climbing season (made famous by Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air) and deftly weaves in the history, politics, triumphs, and tragedies of climbing the world's tallest mountain. Norgay knows Everest, and Touching My Father's Soul is a must-read for anyone contemplating a summit attempt, even if exclusively from the comfort of a favorite armchair.
