Mt. Nuptse Expedition 7.855 m - 25,772ft |
Mount Nuptse is situated in the Khumbu
Himal just south-west of Mount Everest. Nuptse I
(7855m) was first sumited by a British expedition
on the north-ridge (Scott-route) on May 16, 1961
by Dennis Davis and Sherpa Tashi. Nuptse shares
in the glory of the Everest Massif and is the southern
border of the Western Cwm Viewed from the Thangboche
Monastery it appears as a massive wall guarding
the approach to 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 North Face is supporting an expedition
to climb a new route on the North Face of Nuptse.
This route is an extremely steep ice and rock mixed
climb called "The Snake".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.
