The Forbidden Kingdom

Above the treeline — mud-brick villages the colour of the ground they stand on, wind-cut cliffs, and the long open descents that make the trip a riding trip rather than a tour.

Films

A descent in Upper Mustang

A minute of one descent, filmed on the trip — the surface up there, exactly as it rides.

Photographs

High-desert country — one rider, one line of dust.
Wind-carved cliffs above the trail.
Ridgeline riding under the big peaks.
Loose, steep, fast — the descending is the point.
Technical slab riding in golden rock.
Shelf trail above a braided glacial river.
The trails run through living villages, not past them.
Mud-brick houses stacked above the valley floor.
The valleys are home first, trail second.
A wheel mended in a village street, with riders and villagers gathered round.
High, dry ground, and the snow peaks on the horizon.
