He has been published in Backpacker magazine, Powder and on Nationalgeographic.com. After completing his Young Explorers Grant project, which documents social change in the Khumbu region of Nepal, Lowe served as a photo assistant for National Geographic’s Everest expedition. His writing and photos are included in National Geographic’s book The Call of Everest.
