    Read excerpt

    On the morning of Aug. 26, a catastrophic flash flood traveled around 60 miles along the Nepal-Tibet border region, destroying bridges, buildings and a border crossing. It swallowed entire villages and swept thousands of people along with it. Whole tour buses are still missing. More than 1,200 people have been confirmed dead, with thousands more still unaccounted for, including hundreds trapped in the tunnels of hydropower projects.
