Expanded coverage of areas outside of the primary trekking routes, as well as of less-traveled routes near major trailheads
New details on trekking in the Everest, Annapurna, and Langtang regions
New "DIY" information for independent exploring: how to make contact with villagers, use local maps, find porters and guides, understand pricing guidelines, and arrange travel necessities such as water purification and meals
