Above the Shoulder
The view from the lower reaches of the Bottleneck Couloir looking down "The Shoulder" at 8100m (26,575ft). The tents of Camp 4, the site of the famous 1986 disaster, can be seen below at the edge of the Shoulder. This is one of the last pictures of Stefano Zavka before he died.

sergioGreat picture but sad feeling

Voted 10/10

I love your shot, I almost feel like I was there. I'm sorry to learn about Stefano's death, last I knew was that he was missing. I had hoped he was going to make it back to camp at one point. RIP.

This is the first I have seen this shot -it captures the fierceness of the mountain. Quite gripping.
