However, unlike Everest, the Tsangpo River in Tibet has yet to be explored and charted. No other place in the world possesses more drama than the magnificent series of gorges that house the Tsangpo. In 1998, a world-class, four-man paddling team attempted to make history by becoming the first to navigate a remote, 140 mile stretch of the river. Here is the complete, never-before-told story of the ill-fated expedition. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Tibet, Kayaking, Water Sports, Tibet, Adventure; ISBN: 0792279603. ISBN/EAN: 9780792279600.
