Ghunsa, 1998

Ghunsa, 1998

Ghunsa, the largest Sherpa village near Kangchenjunga. Photographed by me in October, 1998. Compare with this 1899 photo by Vittorio Sella and this 1931 photo by Frank Smythe. I carried a photocopy of Smythe's picture on my trek and tried to find the place he stood when he snapped the shutter.
