About Trip:

The name Nup-tse is Tibetan meaning west-peak, as it is the western part of the Lhotse- Nuptse massif. The main ridge, which is separated from Lhotse by a 7,556m high saddle, is crowned by 7 peaks and goes west northwest until its steep west-face drops down more thanĀ  2,300m in the Khumbu glacier. The steep and rocky south-face of Nuptse is 2,500m high and 5km wide. The north slopes are rising from the Western-Cwm valley with the upper part of the Khumbu glacier above its famous icefall.
