Superb!

And nice to see a different view of perhaps the most beautiful mountain in the Khubu.

Great job!

I agree with OMB. Wish I'd be there again. Luckily we have photos like this one!

Fast climb...

That must have been a really fast climb! The sun is still not up and you're already on the summit - Well done :)

Re: Fast climb...

After taking our time on Mera, we were quite well acclimatised. After a few days in Chukung, we were rested. And we skipped base camp (left for the summit from high camp).

Ah Ha!

So this is the picture I've seen on my science book at school, well photographed! Looks like a cool place. Cheers Josh Lewis.

Re: Ah Ha!

How did it find its way onto your science book? ;)

Cool - yes, in both senses of the word. I remember a teammate turning back due to the bitter cold at the end of the rock section. I also remember the awesome sunrise from the summit and the high winds blasting the top parts of Lhotse.

Do visit if you get a chance.
