Title: Ama Dablam and Stupa
Location: The trail to Pengboche, Solukhumbu, Nepal, Asia
Description: I miss life on the trail for its simplicity. For most of us that simplicity comes from putting all our other obligations on hold, and it is temporary. But that’s okay, because for just a while in the Himalayas, it’s possible to concentrate on one thing; enjoying the journey.

For a while I am going to post my images of Nepal and ask for you assistance in helping those in the country rebuild their lives. Average citizens don’t have insurance and I would not trust the inept and corrupt government to help where it is needed most.
I am going to focus on two non-profits I know have ties in the country (read: employees with families who understand where funds can help the most) for my pleas for assistance.
The first is Planeterra, a non-profit run by G Adventures. The second is the Paldorje Sherpa Foundation run by Sherpa Adventure Gear. Both of these charities are run by their parent company, who covers all their overhead so that 100% of donations go to those in need. Both of these companies do the right thing and care for the people of Nepal greatly. Both have funds set up specifically to help quake victims.
Please consider donating today.
