From davidcmorton: "Lama Geshe of #Pangboche blesses another expedition in his home village. #lamageshe is an icon of the local Sherpa community as well as a common visit for climbing expeditions in the last 15-20 years. His wall is lined with summit photos of climbers as well as his escape from Tibet on horseback. Behind him are some of the sacred texts of the Tibetan Buddhist canon." David Morton is a high altitude guide, adventurer and photographer and the co-founder of The Juniper Fund. He is taking over our Instagram today in honor of #Sherpa, part of #ElevationWeekend on #Discovery! Image credit: David Morton #Everest #climbing #Nepal
