Caption: Date: 1968-04 District: Solukhumbu Description: Landscape view on trail to Everest base camp. Stupa in front; fields to the right. Lhotse 1 and Lhotse 2 in back. Everest is just to the west (left) in this picture and probably not visible given the foreground mountains. Picture may have been taken from a spot above and slightly east of Periche. The brown mountain on the right side of the picture may lead up to the north side of Ama Dablam. The stone walls are potato fields for occupants of Periche. The river in this valley flows into the Kosi.
