05.Everest AboveThe KhumbuTree Line:
Khumbu is one of the major three Sherpa settlements. This picture was taken at an elevation of approximately 3800m which marks the Tree Line of Khumbu. Above that altitude, trees will no longer grow. Right in the middle and above the Tree Line, lies M. Everest like a " Fat Lady" with the Crow's wing pointing at it. Everest will not be visible anywhere within Khumbu below this elevation. So it can be called the "First sight and Last line"
