An extraordinary photojournalistic accounting of a 1973 overland journey from the North shore of Belgium to the base of the Himalayas in Nepal. 10,000 miles in 5 months at a time when the door was closing to Americans wanting to travel the same route.

In 1973, the world was just at the brink of a shift we are still reeling from today, more than 40 years later.  Events that would significantly change the direction of human history forever.  In what could be considered a blink of an eye, the world lost a large portion of its remaining innocence.  By the next year, we, as Americans, could not have repeated the trip, right to this very moment.

                                                                  

The world was far from an ideal place, but it did allow 2 young American men

to travel safely and unabated in countries and areas few Americans had 

ever seen or experienced.
