I see you have it in Pumori as well. Maybe in all your Khumbu stuff ? Anyway, a minor point. I've enjoyed all your pics and info. Thanks for the effort.

thanks,

altitude differentiation, alternative name, political situation

The elevation you give, 5483 m, pertains to the second summit which is not usually climbed by trekkers. The first, easily reached summit is only 5357 m high but offers similarly good views.

A common (and more genuine) alternative name is Gokyo Ri. See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gokyo_Ri

The information in the "Political situation" section is meanwhile obsolete and should be removed to avoid confusion.
