This lovely book (1978) describes a two month search for the snow leopard with naturalist George Schaller in the Dolpo region of Nepal. The book combines the search for the snow leopard with a search for inner meaning (Zen Buddism)

Review of 'The Snow Leopard' on Goodreads

4 stars

An absurd story of two westerners (and a varying number of sherpas and porters) trekking into the Himalayas as snow begins to fill the passes, not as a climbing expedition but to observe sheep, consider Buddhism, and deal with recent experiences of death. A mostly lonely and inconclusive journey, but right up my alley.
