Machpuchare
Machapuchare. A sacred mountain translated "Fishtail" in the Annapurna region of Nepal. A vertical twin-peaked Himalayan giant holding its significance in both the people who gaze from below, and climbers who set their minds on places high. Machapucahre is one of the last great unclimbed mountains in the world, banned because of religious beliefs. Its vertical faces make it one of the most impressive spectacles the eye can behold, and because of its location on the south side of the Himalaya, often catches beautiful clouds framing its slopes in glory and majesty.
