On assignment for National Geographic I went to the remote Himalaya to cover the ancient salt trade over the world's highest trade pass, Nangpa La, set at 20,000' between Nepal and Tibet. This collection of photographs cannot be replicated as this traditional trade no longer exists, the Chinese have shut down the Nangpa La, and these long yak caravans will never be seen again. They have vanished. I was inspired to capture this way of life before it was gone forever. I feel these ancient cultures have so much more to teach us, than we have to teach them. I awoke one morning and low and behold, some Tibetans had crossed over despite shifting weather. Only certain times of year can Nangpa La be crossed when it isn't too warm creating leg breaking slush for the yaks, or too cold and snowy with devastating storms. You are looking at about 30 yaks and yak herders who have just come over the pass, and are brewing up tea before continuing down valley. These photographs were shot in film, Kodachrome 64, and are very rare indeed. Archival and museum quality paper and printing utilized: Epson UltraChrome HDR pigmented inks, and Canson Infinity Photographique 310 gsm paper. Decorators, other sizes and prices available.

I hold some world climbing and skiing records, and made the Olympic Biathlon Team, a combination of rifle marksmanship and cross country skiing. However I consider myself a writer/photographer/author, with about 20 non-fiction books out, for both children and adults. My passion is extreme photography, which shifts my mindset. I have made my way to very remote areas, to capture the essence of a place and it's people, and try to replicate this sense for my viewer.
