Default Expedition canoeing in Tibet or Nepal?

Myron, I bought the Nepal guidebook by Peter Knowles a while ago. It's
mostly about white water, but I think that there were some stretches that
would qualify as easy (i.e. open boat possible) as well! Maybe that will
help you out?

You might also ask Will van de Berg, a U.S. white water boater who has
lived in Nepal for quite some time. He's a nice guy who probably could
give you some tips as well. I'll gladly send you his email address by
private email (he lives in Afghanistan right now).


Thanks; you have my email. Glance through Peter's book: I'm looking at a
stretch maybe 150-200 miles, with runnable Class III or portagable class
anything. Shuttle and ground support will be the deciding factor.

Will van de Berg; strangely similar name. You didn't move to Afghanistan,
did you?
