By far the hardest resort I have ever been to. Aspen, St Anton and Mer de Glace are nothing compared to this. It is just so steep, that on any of the runs you risk falling thousands of feet due to the thin snow layer and extreme winds. Personally I liked the Rongbuk glacier, but you must watch out for the 50ft wide and 200ft deep crevasses (there's not much hope of getting out of one!). However, if you are an adrenaline junkie then it's for you - loads of black runs - you must try the off-piste along the west ridge - which takes about 7 hours. One blue that goes from the base of the 'mountain' down to base camp although can get very rocky and you might bump into some donkeys and many sherpas and climbers. But I don't want to discourage anyone :-) PS - bring oxygen or you might die
