Pumori is an awe-inspiring peak in the Himalayas on the border between Nepal and China.
Named by George Mallory, Pumori means 'Unmarried Daughter' or 'The Mountain Daughter' in Sherpa language.
This mountain is revered by the Sherpa community and climbers worldwide.
Climbers often use Pumori as a preparation climb for Everest due to its challenging routes.
An earthquake in 2015 caused avalanches on Pumori, contributing to the Everest Base Camp disaster.
