I'd never initially have thought of Nepal and Afghanistan looking so alike, but it makes sense thinking about it...they're pretty close, geographically (at least, closer than I normally associate them being in my head), and the Hindu Kush being a subrange of the Himalayas. Cool stuff! :D

Those are amazing! Ive always wanted to go to Nepal - my list of places I want to go is pretty big, like everyone. But those photo move it up my list higher.

What month were you there? Sorry if there is a thread that I've missed

I was in Nepal from early-ish May through mid-June last year. By the time I hit the trails it was mid to late May and at the tail end of the climbing season for Everest; so the weather was hit-or-miss some days (resulting in the having to climb mountains twice for view purposes) but held out for the most part. I was in the Kathmandu area for a month after and the rains started to come in at that time too.
