Namche the trail leads enticingly towards the heart of the
highest mountain landcape on earth a dramatic scene of ice-chiselled peaks and
glacier- scoured valleys. In the shadow of these mountains, villages have a
stark and solemn kind of beauty looking out over an inflexible land where
agriculture is at its most basic where husbandry of the soil appears at first
to have progressed no further than the 16 th century when the first sherpas
came over the mountains from Tibet. The humble potato staple of their diet, was
brought here in the 1830s, and its introduction is reckoned to have been one of
the most significant events in Sherpa history- until that is khumbu was opened
to western influence in the 1950s.
