Images Himalayas: Everest Trek

This photograph was taken at around 11.30 am in the morning at Chukung in the Imja valley below the peak of Ama Dablam in the month of October. It gives an idea of how cold it can be in the bright sunshine! More than the cold I think it is the wind  and my friend Sitha is well protected against the chilling gales blowing off the Lhotse face!
