Here are some tasks awaiting attention:
Cholatse
Cholatse is a mountain in the Khumbu region of the Nepalese Himalayas. It has an elevation of 6,440 metres (21,130 ft) above sea level. Cholatse is connected to the slightly higher Taboche by a long ridge. The Chola glacier descends off the east face. A lake is located to the east, which gave the mountain its name – in Tibetan, cho means 'lake', la means 'pass', and tse means 'peak'. Cholatse was first climbed via the southwest ridge in 1982. The north and east faces of the mountain can be seen from Dughla, on the trail to the Everest base camp. This photograph of Cholatse was taken from the east, near Dughla, with a small section of Chola Lake visible in the centre of the image. The terminal moraine of the glacier can be seen in the foreground.Photograph credit: Vyacheslav Argenberg
