Путь их лежит в неприступные дебри и ущелья Гималаев. Никто, даже сам проводник, никогда не бывал в этих заповедных местах. Дорогу туда яростно стерегут полосатые людоеды, косматые обитатели пещер и великаны-изгнанники, звереющие от своего одиночества.

Ever since my teenage years, I have had a soft spot for Mayne Reid, and I have always viewed him as an excellent storyteller. Although "The Cliff Climbers" is not his best work, it is entertaining nonetheless. Still, if you're not familiar with this author, I would recommend starting with some of his other books (for example, "The Headless Horseman" or "Osceola the Seminole").
