Lhotse
is part of the Everest massif and
is 3km south of Mount Everest, from
which it is separated by the South
Col.It is considered an independent
mountain. It was first climbed by
F.Luchsinger and E.Reiss in 1956.An
impressive ring of three peaks makes
up the Lhotse massif:Lhotse East or
Middle, Lhotse and Lhotse Shar. The
South Face of Lhotse is one of the
largest mountain faces in the world.We
attempt to climb the normal route
to the tallest peak of the Lhotse
massif.Lhotse BC is located beside
the Khumbu Glacier,same as Everest
BC.The section during the climb,which
has been unanimously declared the
most dangerous,is the Khumbu Icefall.
The first successful ascent of the
mountain was in 1956 by the Swiss
on the West Face.The South Face though
attempted many times was successful
climbed only in 1984 by a Czech expeditions.This
beautiful massif also holds immense
promise as it is little developed
and offers fascinating opportunities.
