Vinson (in the Antarctica), Denali, Aconcagua and numerous other peaks in the Cascades including Mount Baker and Rainer.

Most Sherpas live in the eastern regions of the country known as Solu, Khumbu, and Pharak . However, some live farther west in the Rolwaling valley and in the Helambu region north of Kathmandu. Pangboche is the Sherpa’s oldest village in Pemba Doma Nepal, and is estimated to have been built over 300 years ago. Pemba Doma Sherpa - The first woman to scale Everest from two faces. Sherpas speak a Tibetan dialect, and traditionally are traders and farmers cultivating high altitude As a little girl growing up in Namche, Pemba Doma Sherpa often followed her beloved mountaineering grandfather into the mountains.

To this day, Harris Tweed is the only fabric in the world protected by an Act of Parliament. It must be “made with 100% pure virgin wool, dyed, spun and fi nished in the Outer Hebrides and woven by hand by the Islanders in their homes on the Islands of Lewis, Harris, Uist and Barra.” Harris Tweed production is monitored on a daily basis and all fabric is inspected and approved before being stamped with their trademark.

  • Pangden: Sherpa Women and Marriage Dolma D. Sherpa Introduction Every Piece of Clothing Has Its Own Story Behind It
    Pangden: Sherpa Women and Marriage Dolma D. Sherpa Introduction Every piece of clothing has its own story behind it. The journey a cloth makes, that we are unaware of, is not limited to a single culture and geographical location. Clothing conveys a message without having to speak for it. The clothing piece we will focus in this paper is, Pangden. A pangden is more than just a mere piece of clothing. It’s a traditional way of determining your gender and marital status without having to explain it. However, like many other old tradition and culture, pangden has had gone through some cultural reconstruction by the newer generation. In this paper, we will be observing pangden up close and through the interviews of woman who wear it. We will also discuss the pangden and its background, the journey it has had since its manufacturing in Lhasa, Tibet, to across the globe, in my closet in New York, USA. We will also compare the Pangden with the Head adornments women in Rupea, Romania wears as a sign of being married. The main take away will be focused on the relationship it has with the wearer’s group Identity and who it is passed down to. Background Pangden is part of traditional dress for women. It is rectangular piece of weaved colorful cloth stitched together to a longer piece of fabric so you can tie it around your waist. It appears to look like a half apron but serves a very different purpose. The pangden I’ll be talking about in this paper, is a hand down from my mom and holds a significance in my wardrobe.
