Here's a Todd Burleson pic, looks like from high up on Pumo Ri.

So from which spot would pic #1 have been taken?

It couldn't be anywhere from the south or east
(e.g. Kala Pattar), I know those views like the back of my hand.

Walk up Over the Khumba Icefall...keep going up the Western Cwm until to you reach Camp Three. Then scale OVER Lhotse, turn around, and snap the picture, :o)

BTW....what a great picture.

When Mallory saw that view, he turned around and started looking for another way up.
