History of Our Name:

Climbers traversing the trails of the Himalayan Mountains often find shelves cut into sheer rock walls. Weary from the strenuous climb and the weight of their load, they can lean against these ledges and rest their packs. With the burden lifted from their backs, the climbers can pause for a moment to study the trail above them and make decisions about their journey. The Himalayan word for this place of rest and vision is “Sumatanga”.
