Sacred 7,134 m peak of the Rolwaling Himal, second highest in the range, named for the Hindu goddess Gauri (Parvati) and her consort Shankar (Shiva); Sherpas call it Jomo Tseringma.
Visible from Kathmandu on clear days, it was first climbed on 8 May 1979 by John Roskelley and Dorje Sherpa, and Nepal Standard Time is based on its meridian.
