Mt. Gawagapu Explorer

August 4-20, 2012

US$2,900

 

 

This is a genuine first-time adventure in a border region inhabited by a fascinating collection of peoples: Tibetan, Nu, Lisu and Drung. The influence of French missionaries, who settled in the Nu and Lancang river valleys from the 1860s to 1950, is still strong, with highly unusual Tibetan Catholic communities holding fast to their faith.

 

Participants must be in good physical condition and mentally prepared for a challenging environment. You will find no mobile reception, internet access or even electricity while we are on the mountain, where we are likely to meet no one but hunters who still use wooden crossbows and bamboo arrows, sometimes poisoned with aconite.
