    Stone Walls, Khumbu Valley - Nepal

Tiers of hand-stacked river stones create both terrace foundations and pasture walls. Here, just above Pheriche, winter moss clings to the older walls, and bright stone mark a more recent creation. The Sherpa people are masters of this kind of construction. I have seen very few wall breaches - except when the occasional zesty yak, giddy with spring, jumps through one by accident.
    Ama Dablam, Khumbu Valley - Nepal

Winter in Nepal. A small group of Buddhist Monks travel up the serpentine valley path toward the village of Pangboche. Above them rises the massive ice walled peak of Ama Dablam (22,600 ft).
    Blue Yarn, Kathmandu - Nepal

Freshly dyed, hand spun wool yarn, hangs from the roof of a small home in Kathmandu. With a few days of sun and a light breeze, the yarn will be ready for weaving.
