Great Treasuries Of The Snow", actually, has seven
major summits. To the locals, Kanchanjunga (8585
m.), the third highest mountain in the world, is the
abode of gods who bestow prosperity and benevolence
on the mand their lands. The avalanches that
Kanchanjunga throws down are said to be the largest
anywhere! The major ethnic group inhabiting the
Kanchenjunga region are the Limbus who along with
Rais have earned respect as fearless infantry
men-the "Gurkhas". Your journey to this remote area

or Tumlingtar for your flight back or you can head
east over the Lapsang La (5110 m.) to Tseram and
