Himalayan Connection
Tourists in Nepal now have a place to stash gear, send faxes, and receive mail, E-mail, and phone calls, thanks to the Himalayan Explorers Club. Its new clubhouse opened in Kathmandu in July and provides travelers with a place to find the most up-to-date
information about trekking in the Himalayas. A basic single membership is $20. For details call 303-494-9656.
Shark Shooting
If you're an amateur itching to try underwater photography, the Nikonos Shootout may be your chance. The workshop and contest, to be held October 17-20 in Monterey, California, is an opportunity to learn from the best in the business--and to win a week aboard the luxury live-aboard Belize Aggressor. To register, call 800-272-9122.
Outer Limits Whether you climb, hang glide, kayak, or mush, Crested Butte's new No Limits Center has an extreme adventure for you--and now provides year-round activities for disabled athletes through its greatly expanded Adaptive Sports Center. Call 888-954-6487.
