Out of Eden Walk: Walking Afghanistan's Wakhan Corridor - The World from PRX Afghanistan's wild and mountainous Wakhan Corridor is an isolated region, home to the rare snow leopard and to a human culture that has gone unchanged for centuries. People still get their flour for baking from water-powered grist mills. Host Marco Werman speaks with National Geographic Explorer Paul Salopek about his trek through this rugged alpine wilderness.

Trekking through the remote mountain world of the #Wakhan Corridor in #Afghanistan was a literal high point in the global @outofedenwalk journey: An enclave of ancient water mills, #snowleopards & yak herder camps—ringed by 20,000-foot peaks. @TheWorld

"Color is the place where our brain and the Universe meet.” — Paul Klee. Five winters ago @paleyphoto & I crossed the #Wakhan Corridor of #Afghanistan, a high, wild ‘country of light.’ I wonder how our friends there are faring now under the Taliban. 1/ https://t.co/E4PbyfeD2n

Ominous news: Friends in #Afghanistan report that for the 1st time ever, the #Taliban have advanced into the #Wakhan Corridor, a remote & beautiful region previously untouched by war—home to ethnic & religious minorities at extreme risk of persecution. Afghan forces fled. 1/2

Last summer, @paleyphoto and I trekked peacefully for weeks across one of the least-known corners of #Afghanistan—a glowing, wild, alpine redoubt hidden from war. Read the story this week in the September issue of @NatGeoMag. #EdenWalk #Wakhan. A peek: https://on.natgeo.com/2Pn8XT9
