Ama Dablam, or “mother’s necklace’, was named after the ridges that stretch on each of the mountain resembling the embrace of a mother (ama) protecting a child and the hanging glacier being the dablam, a traditional pendant worn by Sherpa women.
This is not a particularly large mountain by Himalayan standards, but it is one of the most breathtaking; a pyramidal shape with a sheer cliff face and soaring ridges, a glacier that glints in the sunlight and a summit wreathed in clouds.
