Summary: Imagine a gorge that is 3X deeper and 8X steeper than the Grand Canyon. Now imagine kayaking its treacherous waters. It's called the Tsangpo River Gorge in Eastern Tibet that is considered sacred to Buddhists and is the inspiration for James Hilton's "Shangri-La." Listen to Peter Heller who followed a whitewater expedition to kayak these waters and lived to tell about it. He'll also talk about his great experiences with the Tibetans of the area.
