The shoulder peak on AmaD at right is Tsuro Ri. The small dark pyramid behind the trekker is Amphu Gyaltsen. The high snowy peak at far left is unnamed but the smalller snowy summit to its right (just left of the cloud) is the top of Ombigaichen.

Re: Names

Is the unnamed peak to the left of Ombigaichen what appears as P6402m on certain maps (I only have the rather approximate Nepa Map)? Do you know whether it is climbed or not? Thanks for any info!

Edit. I found a picture where P6402m is given as Pema Dablam (6430m). Would this be correct?

Re: Names

I hope that Damian can answer your question. I can only assure that the peak is identical with P. 6430m on the map "Khumbu Himal" 1:50000 of "Nepal-Kartenwerk der Arbeitsgemeinschaft für vergleichende Hochgebirgsforschung" and with P. 6419m on the map "Mount Everest" 1:50000 of National Geographic / Bradford Washburn (1988)
