First of two taken some years ago of Ama Dablam from Kala Patthar (18500ft). I was entirely by myself on the ridge watching the sun set on Everest, and then on Ama Dablam. Definitely one of those 'moments of a lifetime' occasions. Around this time I noticed the mist beginning to roll up from further down the Khumbu and realised it was probably best to get down before I could see nothing! The second shot is a few minutes later with the sun very definitely setting.
Landschaft, Himalaya, Trekking
Das Khumbu‑Tal liegt eingebettet zwischen bewaldeten Hängen und den scharf gezeichneten Gipfeln des Himalaya, im Herzen der Region der Sherpas. Rechts erhebt sich die Ama Dablam, deren elegante, freistehende Form oft als einer der schönsten Berge der Erde beschrieben wird. Unterhalb dieser monumentalen Kulisse liegt die Everest Summit Lodge 'Tashinga' ruhig am Hang, ein stiller Punkt im weiten Rhythmus des Trekking‑Alltags. Die Szene verbindet Höhe, Klarheit und die besondere Atmosphäre des Himalaya im Oktober 2012.
The Khumbu Valley lies between forested slopes and the sharply defined Himalayan peaks, at the center of the Sherpa region. To the right rises Ama Dablam, often regarded as one of the most beautiful mountains on Earth due to its elegant, freestanding shape. Below this monumental backdrop, Everest Summit Lodge 'Tashinga' rests quietly on the hillside — a calm point within the vast rhythm of trekking life. The scene captures altitude, clarity, and the distinct October atmosphere of 2012 in the Himalaya.
Recently I was asked about the Cho La pass in Himalayas, so I used this opportunity to revisit photos I took on this day. And I think it was the best view we got this day - the valley we were sleeping in with Ama Dablam in the background.
Its hard to believe that five years have passed since I was there looking at this view, time sure flies by, i've been lucky enough to have had the opportunity to visit this beautiful country four times over the years.
This was taken on the descent from Mera Peak high camp 5800m looking north towards the pyramid shaped summit of Mt Everest* 8848m just left of centre with Lhotse 8414m and Lhotse Shar 8393m to the right. Left of Everest is the ridge of Nuptse 7861m, on the extreme left is the summit of Malangphulang 6573m with Ama Dablam 6856m behind to its right. One of the prominent peaks on the right is the romantically named Peak 41 6648m, not sure which, the other does not appear to be named. Bottom right is the Mera La (pass).

Sagarmatha - Nepali
I posted that one a while back. This one was taken during an acclimatization walk. Almost from the same location. Just 600m higher. It was worth a climb. I think!
PS. H1 was busy. Time to start holidays! Coming soon!!! :-)

Second of two taken some years ago of Ama Dablam from Kala Patthar (18500ft). I was entirely by myself on the ridge watching the sun set on Everest, and then on Ama Dablam. Definitely one of those 'moments of a lifetime' occasions. Around this time I noticed the mist beginning to roll up from further down the Khumbu and realised it was probably best to get down before I could see nothing, and before it got dark! The second shot is a few minutes later with the sun very definitely setting, and the mist a lot further up the valley!
L'Ama Dablam (6814m) est un sommet népalais de l'Himalaya dans la région du Khumbu. Il fait face au Tawesche.

Phortse est un village situé à 3840m d'altitude dans le Khumbu , au Népal .
Il se situe en dehors du circuit de randonnée principal et ressemble donc davantage à un authentique village Sherpa. Il existe un sentier de liaison en hauteur vers Pangpoche offrant des vues splendides sur la vallée, qui peut être utilisé à la place de l'itinéraire standard de Tengboche.

And that's the promised Mt Everest photo. The main 'block' of mountains consists of:
* The long ridge are Nuptse and its peaks. The highest is just below 8,000m;
* Then there is Mt Everest;
* And then there are three Lhotse peaks. Currently officially there are 14 peaks over 8,000m. In 2012 Nepal attempted to add 8 more peaks to this list and Lhotse Shar (8,383m) was on the list. The application failed, so it is still 'just' a subsidiary mountain of Lhotse. And actually according to wikipedia: It has the highest fatality rate of all the eight-thousanders - for every 2 people who summit the mountain, one person dies attempting to. Scary!
17,000 feet up in the Khumbu Himalaya.
For some reason, most trekkers to Everest Base Camp stay on the trail and rarely venture into the surrounding wilderness. I decided to do some exploring and found this spectacular alpine lake with a reflection of Ama Dablam. Clouds obscured the view in the afternoon but parted just after sunset to reveal some of the most beautiful twilight colors I've ever witnessed. The cloud layer that had surrounded me all afternoon can be seen receding back down the valley. It's still catching some light from below.

10 years to the day,
A photo of great importance to me. Hanging on the living room wall as a constant reminder of how lucky I was to escape the mountain with my life.
Re-edit: Ama Dablam, photo taken from Dingboche
Captured while hiking above Dingboche. You can spot the jagged impressive peaks as I saw while on the narrow path. Down below is village of Periche.
In Pangboche (3930m), the town which we can see in the inferior angle of this photo, begins the way to climb up this fabulous mountain.
