"Mount Kailash glowed in fresh snow and the strong wind atop stirred up a storm . . . The snow swirled around like a hula hoop till it was spent and lay suspended like a wispy smoke ring at the tip of a cigar. . . The luminescent pyramid with a white halo, embossed on the bluest of earthly skies, was imprinted forever in my memory."
