\nboth historical and modern mountaineering from a wide range of perspectives.

\nNanda Devi, Nanda Devi East and Nanda Kot. Within this first part, American
\nalpinist and author Pete Takeda examines the complex interweaving of
\ninternational mountaineering, local traditions and global politics that helped
\nshape travel and exploration in the Garhwal Himalaya of India, from centuries\u2019
\nold religious pilgrimages to climbs of the 1930s. (The years 1940 to 2018 will
\nbe covered in the second part, appearing in Alpinist 63.) Paula Wright, Julia
\nPulwicki and Stewart Weaver also provide accounts of a few early
\nmountaineering expeditions to the region. <\/p>\n
In addition, you\u2019ll get a chance to learn more about the prolific career of
\nJapanese alpinist Yasushi Yamanoi, known for alpine-style first ascents on
\nsome of the world\u2019s highest and most challenging peaks\u2014as told by Indian
\nclimber and liaison officer Sartaj Ghuman. Anindya Mukherjee, another
\nmountaineer from India, recounts some of his expeditions, often accompanied by
\nlocal Lepcha residents, around the East Ridge of Kangchenjunga. Meanwhile in
\nthe US, Joe Whittle, an enrolled tribal member of the Caddo Nation and a
\ndescendent of the Delaware Nation, recounts a trip with other Native Americans

\nancestral connections to mountain lands.<\/p>\n
Among other articles: Lauren Smith writes of climbing and ornithology as means
\nto seek close experiences of nature; Amanda Padoan shares stories of the great
\nwinter alpinist Muhammad Ali of Sadpara, Pakistan; Sara Aranda describes how
