Huge cornice

The edge of the NW ridge is one long cornice and the drop to the Kalaxong glacier can be hundreds of meters. The Cornice sometimes have an overhang of about 5 meters so don't get too close to the edge. Photo shot at about 6200m.

That's incredible

Sometimes pictures don't always give the exact perspective. I'll bet this was absolutely amazing.
