GREAT HIMALAYAN TRAIL N8: ROLWALING & EVEREST

This is one of a series of 10 maps covering the Great Himalayan Trail.

Rolwaling and Everest region in the Newgrove Consultants series covering the course of Great Himalaya Trail High Route at 1:100,000 on nine maps printed on light, waterproof and tear-resistant plastic paper. The map is single-sided and covers an area between Suri Dobhan and the Daldung La pass across the Sagarmatha National Park and past the Ambulpch La pass. Overprint for local treks shows the Mt Everest, Gokyo Lakes and Island Peak trails.

The base map, derived from satellite imagery, has contours at 200m intervals enhanced by relief shading and colouring to show glaciers, the snow line at 6000m, barren land, forests, etc. Numerous spot heights are marked in the high-laying areas, but not very many and in places none on the south side of the trail. Important peaks and mountain passes are prominently marked. Boundaries of national parks and other protected areas are also shown.
