OtherEverests International Dunhuang Programme British Library The images available at International Dunhuang Programme are archived at British Library, India Office, presumably MSS EUR F157/486, F157/489 and F157/824.

The lot sold at Bonhams was probably purchased by a very selfish private individual not willing to share with the public.

Everest and Sherpas go a little more than just hand-in-hand. They do more than compliment each others' existence. Everest and Sherpas are one. They are not plural. They are singular.

Does anyone know where this image from Alamy first appeared? It shows Ronald Kaulback's encounter with supposed yeti tracks on the headwaters of the Salween 1935-6. The Sherpas illustrated are Lewa, Nyima Tondrup and Nyima Dorje Waymarks

““I don’t understand why people want to do it if they don’t want to be in the mountains. They acclimatise in their bedroom, and are then transported to another bedroom. Then they climb the mountain before they know what’s happened.”” OtherEverests

OtherEverests Ash Routen The antiquated underlying vocabulary and narrative of 'achievement' over (now contrived and unnecessary) geographical challenges, on the backs of locals, is one reminiscent of colonial conquest and exploitation. Which is pretty silly, but people still die.
