Abstract: In a mix of Sherpa and English, they describe how decisions get made in the village; how rules/laws get made; what happens when rules/laws get broken; how exile is enforced; the structure of the governing committee. These recordings were made on a trek in the spring of 2011 up to Mount Everest Base Camp. The recordings span a wide variety of topics from making and drinking chang to the work of Mount Everest's 'ice fall doctors'.
