| Mt. Nuptse (7,855 m) - Itinerary |
|
 The name of Nup-tse is Tibetan meaning west-peak, as it is the western part of Lhotse-Nuptse massif. The main ridge, which is separated from Lhotse by a 7,556 m high saddle, is crowned by 7 peaks and goes west-northwest until its steep west-face drops down more than 2,300 m to the Khumbu glacier. The steep and rocky south-face of Nuptse is 2,500 m high and 5 Kilometers wide. The north slopes are rising from the Western-Cwm valley with the uppe part of the Khumbu glacier above its famous icefall.
