The Everest-Lhotse-Nuptse massif rising above everything else. Seen from Renjo La - one of the "three passes" in the Khumbu area (~5400m), Nepal. With the 3rd Gokyo lake to the left, Makalu in the far distance and the steep Cholatse on the right side.

Looking back toward Gokyo, Mt Everest, in the center, towers above all else.

This is another view of Mount Everest as it towers above Gokyo. We are on our way to cross the third high pass of our trek, Renjo La (17,585 feet)....
