Description
This a photo of Dhaulagiri, taken at an altitude of about 2800 metres in the forrested hills near Chomrong in the Annapurna reserve of the Nepalise Himalayas. Dhaulagiri is 8167 metres and is the seventh highest mountain in the world. It forms the eastern anchor of the Dhaulagiri Himal. Dhaulagiri means "White Mountain". Below Dhaulagiri(not visible) is the deep gorge called Kali Gandaki of which Dhaulagiri vertically rises an astonishing 7000 metres above.
A full size view gives a better clarity and is recommended.

The funny thing is that the mountain in the foreground would be a gorgeous thing on it's own without the huge thing in back! It's hard to believe the vertical rise of that monster!
