Both Lhotse and Everest share the same base camp. In fact, Lhotse is a part of Everest massif itself.An early attempt on Lhotse was by the 1955 International Himalayan Expedition headed by Norman Dyhrenfurth. It also included two Austrians (cartographer Erwin Schneider and Ernst Senn) and two Swiss (Bruno Spirig and Arthur Spöhel), and was the first expedition in the Everest area to include Americans (Fred Beckey, George Bell, and Richard McGowan).
