Join Gordon Alexander in Nepal as he drags his "heavy ass" over the Himalayas in this hilarious, adventure-soaked account of the Three Passes Trek, culminating in a visit to Everest Base Camp.

Together with guide Subash and porter Nima, Gordon tackles high passes in excess of 5,400 meters (17,700 feet) and explains how high altitude affects a mildly overweight road builder from sea level in the tropics. Each part of the journey brings new challenges, including sub-freezing temperatures, almost falling into a crevasse, and alarmingly warm beer. Along the way he discovers the local Kukri Rum, traverses glaciers, interacts with eccentric and curious characters, and takes in the most beautiful views on the planet.

Contains mature themes.

Gordon Alexander has traveled to nearly thirty countries in his lifetime, and will not rest until he has ticked every single one of them off his list. Gordon currently works in Australia's Northern Territory, his base for launching regular traveling forays into Asia and beyond. His loves include rugby, photography, and playing his hang-drum, a rare UFO-shaped percussion instrument from the future.
