Kangchenjunga Sunrise


Kangchenjunga Sunrise, originally uploaded by gang-gang.

At 8586m, Kangchenjunga is the third highest mountain on the planet. Even viewed up close from the Zema Glacier, its size was hard to appreciate until the first rays of the sun bathed the mountain in a pale orange alpenglow, majestically isolating it from lesser peaks.

This photo was taken on the Green Lake Trek in North Sikkim. For a description of this trek and more photos go to
