The Nuptse ridge goes west-northwest until its steep west-face drops down more than 2300m to the enchanting Khumbu-glacier. One of the interesting facts is south-face of Nuptse is 2500m high and 5 kilometers wide. The main summit Nuptse I (7861m/25,791 fts ) was first summited by a British expedition team of Dennis Davis and Tashi Sherpa from north-ridge on May 16, 1961.
Nuptse Expedition is extremely dangerous due to loose snow with a lot of hollows, and there are also weakly attached cornices of snow. This creates many barriers to climbing, yet is not sturdy enough for safe climbing.
