A Himalayan disaster has left nearly 3,000 people missing across Nepal and Tibet.
More than 670 deaths have now been reported.
Hydropower sites, roads, homes and the Gyirong border area suffered major damage.
Foreign tourists and hundreds of workers are among those still missing.
More than 3,700 people have been rescued in Nepal.

The first silence I experienced wasn't quiet.
When I stopped speaking, what rose up was everything I'd been drowning out.
Have you ever sat with real silence, not just quiet but the kind that reveals what you've been avoiding?

H/T @Kuldeep Dutta | Geology-Earth Science
“… In hilly regions transitioning rapidly to low gradient alluvial plains, localized hydrometeorological triggers can instantly scale into devastating basin wide disasters. This study dissects the September 2020 cascading hazard in parts of the Arunachal Pradesh-Assam corridor to quantify the rapid coupling between upstream hillslopes and downstream floodplains.
Check out the [attached graphical abstract figure] for an integrated visual workflow of the entire disaster continuum from hillslope failure to floodplain transformation...”

“Extreme precipitation in the Eastern Himalaya is increasingly associated with coupled hillslope-floodplain hazards. This study examines the 17th-18th September 2020 rainfall event in Arunachal Pradesh initiating landslides and its downstream impacts in Assam, India, using multi-sensor satellite data and long-term rainfall records. Sentinel-2 imagery was used to map landslides and debris flows, Sentinel-1 SAR data to delineate flood extent, and IMD gridded rainfall (1996–2020) to analyse rainfall spell characteristics. The event triggered widespread slope failures, localized landslide damming, and a subsequent breach, generating sediment-laden flows that inundated ~ 100 km² of the Dhemaji floodplain. A backscatter-derived Relative Flood Volume Index (RFVI) indicates spatial variability in inundation intensity, although it does not represent absolute flood volume. Rainfall analysis suggests that antecedent wetness from preceding spells preconditioned slopes, while peak daily rainfall (> 170 mm day−1) initiated landsliding. Power-law scaling shows negligible dependence of intensity on duration (R2 ≈ 0.0004), whereas cumulative rainfall exhibits a stronger relationship with duration (R2 ≈ 0.54). These results indicate distinct roles of rainfall intensity and accumulation in controlling landslide initiation and downstream flooding, respectively, highlighting the importance of compound rainfall forcing in rapid hydrogeomorphic cascades…”

In 2022, DJI was able to fly one of their drones over Mt. Everest.
Here's the video recorded by the drone around the highest point on Earth!
https://youtu.be/Zz9oI3B6v4cIn 2024 and 2025, DJI drones, specifically the Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 4 Pro, achieved record-setting, high-altitude flights over Mount Everest, capturing 8K footage of the summit at 8,848 meters. These drones, often operated with 8KRAW, showcased remarkable stability in high winds (up to 50 km/h) and thin air.

H/T @abhinav Alangadan
“Can we develop a first-order understanding of permafrost degradation and glacial lakes exposed to degradation-induced mass movements in the Himalaya?
[The authors] tried to address this question. The study [first link above] integrates machine learning, statistical modeling, and numerical modeling to investigate high-resolution permafrost distribution, potential degradation, and associated mass-movement hazards in the Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh, India.
Using rock glaciers as proxies, [they] generated a high-resolution permafrost distribution using machine learning, while potential degradation zones were delineated using the 0°C isotherm as a first-order indicator. [They] further identified glacial lakes located near potentially degrading permafrost zones and reconstructed their bathymetry. A detailed scenario-based GLOF process-chain simulation was then carried out for Kashang Lake using r.avaflow and HEC-RAS.
[Their] results indicate that seven glacial lakes in #Kinnaur are located close to potentially degrading permafrost zones. The simulations further show that a potential GLOF from Kashang Lake could inundate critical downstream infrastructure, including nearly 11 km of National Highway 5…”

There was a bleached tree beneath the Himalayas, stripped by wind, still standing.
Looking at it, I understood, impermanence isn't sad, it's beautiful.

China Overland Part 4 is live: Shigatse to Saga via G318, Gyatso La, Everest North Base Camp, Rongbuk, Peiku Tso, and G219. Five 8,000m peaks, eco-bus rules, khata sendoff, wolf-claw road lore, turquoise lake, pilgrim buses, and lunch at altitude. Everest made us park. North Face, Shishapangma, Himalayan road day. Tiny lungs, big scenery. High-altitude Tibet. Cold, clear, high.

What an amazing day! It was coolish and very damp this morning in Trongsa. I spotted one of these fellas just posing, next to the female. Then saw another. And as the morning progressed I realised they were everywhere :)
I was too slow to capture the female. They flitter off quickly. But the boys just hang about and show off their colours.

Seconds later I got a cheeky glimpse of a Heliophorus (Sapphire).
I feel I've wasted my life when instead I could be sitting in a cow paddock at 2900m looking for little flappy blues.

One of those teeny tiny little butterflies that might be a sapphire or might not and my only reference for Bhutanese blues doesn't actually show the upper wings for most of the species.
I do love how every flash of blue fluttering by could be something totally new to my eyes.
