Difficulty to climb

Even though Lhotse Shar is not as tall as Mt.Everest, it still measures 8,383m which still is a great height. Lhotse Shar is one of the subsidiary peaks and has the highest rate when it comes to fatality. Every one in two people who attempt to climb this peak dies during their ascend.

There is the usual altitude sickness that one has to go through. Also, going through its couloir is equally difficult because of the frequent rockfalls. The massive height with the unpredictable weather is itself dangerous.

Besides these, climbing the mountain is another danger as the human body starts to feel the need for oxygen with the increase in height. One also has to face extreme conditions like frostbite with blood embolism, pulmonary edema, and cerebral edema. It makes the trip more challenging and dangerous.
