Description

The ski descent from the summit of Lhotse goes into the Couloir and is very tight with challenging and variable snow conditions. Coming out of the Couloir the route goes skiers left of the climbing route. The line then goes skiers right of the climbing line down the middle of the crazy vast Lhotse face before finally linking back with the climbing line at the bergshrund and to Camp Two.
