Cho Polu

Description

Strange-shaped peak, between

Lhotse (8501m) and Makalu (8463m); close to

Everest. The easiest approach is from the Barunglacier, over the east ridge. Directly to the west; on the

other side of the Lhotse-Shar-glacier rises Imja

Tse, or Island Peak (6173m); this is a much more crowded summit.
