Trip Overview

The successful climbing to Mt. Lhotse was made by Swiss on the West Face in 1956.Though many group tried this South face many times, it was successfully climbed only in 1984 by Czech Expeditions Group. 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. Like the other expedition the Lhotse Expedition is also termed among the strenuous expedition.
