Nuptse 7855m
Over View
Nuptse is situated in the Solu Khumbu region,
just southwest of Mount Everest . The name
Nup-tse is Tibetan and means west-peak, as
it is the western part of the Lhotse-Nuptse-massif.
The main ridge, which is separated from Lhotse
by a 7556m high saddle, is crowned by 7 peaks
and goes west-northwest until its steep west-face
drops down more than 2300m to the Khumbu-glacier.
The steep and rocky south-face of Nuptse is
2500m high and 5 kilometers wide. The north
slopes are rising from the Western-Cwm valley
with the upper part of the Khumbu-glacier
above its famous icefall.
