Mind Tripping Back to Everest 
His book brings all my own travel experiences back most vividly, as well as simultaneously taking my breath away. Some years ago, I travelled through Nepal, but didn't take as many splendid photos as Tim Hauf, the author of Solu-Khumbu: The Trek to Everest. The author's diary notes bring the physical hardships of travelling in those remote areas precisely up front and personal (to say the least regarding "GI" interruptions!). It was a treat to view his photos, as they made me feel I was walking right along side of the author, seeing and feeling with all my senses all that those haunting and mesmerizing mountains and Nepal's friendly people offer to the Western trekker. I'm too old, now, to attempt that kind of travel, but I open this book and lo and behold, "I'm on the road, again. "
Kudos to Tim Hauf, and a heartfelt "thanks for the memories". .
Reliving a trek in photos 
This is a photo journal one can read over and over with great pleasure. The author has captured, perfectly, the land and people of eastern Nepal.
Great Memories of the Trek! 
We started out treks in Lukla and the pictures made us wish we had started in Jiri. My husband and I made the trek to Everest three years in a row and like another reviewer said, Tim took the pictures we wish we'd taken. The text is excellent, but the photos are incredible. They show just what the trek is like and we've gone thru the book several times since we received it, reliving the three most memorable vacations of our long lives. I would recommend this book to anyone who has made the trek and to anyone who would like to!.
