The Snow Leopard by Peter Matthiessen

Following the death of his wife, Peter Matthiessen set out on a journey  in 1973 through the Himalayas of Nepal with the goal of spotting the elusive snow leopard, but was he searching for something more? Would hiking through the snow covered trails among the world's greatest peaks bring clarity to his life?

Christine and Kyle get spiritual as they dive into The Snow Leopard, discuss air burials, and hear a book club member's first-hand account of what it was like to travel in the region.

The next book on the club's reading list is Soaring to Glory: A Tuskegee Airman's Firsthand Account of World War II
