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. The
section during the climb which has been unanimously declared the most dangerous
is the Khumbu Icefall. |

"Lhotse" which means south peaks is part of the Everest massif. By virtue
of it being 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 & E. Reiss in 1956. An impressive ring of three peaks make up the
Lhotse massif: Lhotse East or Middle, Lhotse & 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.
