Pumori (Nepali: पुमोरि, Chinese: 普莫里峰) (or Pumo Ri) is a mountain on the Nepal-China border in the Mahalangur section of the Himalayas. Pumori lies just eight kilometres west of Mount Everest. Pumori, meaning "the Mountain Daughter" in Sherpa language, was named by George Mallory. "Pumo" means young girl or daughter and "Ri" means mountain in Sherpa language.[3] Climbers sometimes refer to Pumori as "Everest's Daughter".[4] Mallory also called it Clare Peak, after his daughter.[5]

Pumori is a popular climbing peak. The easiest route is graded class 3, although with significant avalanche danger. Pumori was first climbed on May 17, 1962, by Gerhard Lenser on a German-Swiss expedition.[2] Two Czechs (Leopold Sulovský and Zdeněk Michalec) climbed a new route on the south face in the spring of 1996.[6]

An outlier of Pumori is Kala Patthar (5,643 metres, 18,514 ft), which appears as a brown bump below the south face of Pumori. Many trekkers going to see Mount Everest up close will attempt to climb to the top of Kala Patthar.

Nearly 500 people had summitted Pumori by 2005, at a cost of 42 lives.[8] It was noted for its increasing popularity by 2008, with such features as being able to use the Everest base camp for Nepal (when occupied) when trekking or climbing Pumori and offering views of Tibet, Nepal and Everest.[8] However, there have been some dangers from avalanches including some Spanish climbing teams that took heavy losses (such as in 1989 and 2001),[8] and the 2015 avalanche, which was triggered by the 2015 earthquake, originated from the Pumori-Lingtren ridge.[7]

In 1982 a group climbing to Pumori also did a ski-hike around Everest.[9] Jim Bridwell led the climbing expedition to Pumori.[9]

Le Pumori est une montagne de l'Himalaya située à la frontière népalo-tibétaine à seulement 9 kilomètres de l'Everest. Son nom, qui signifie en tibétain « Sœur non mariée », a été donné par George Mallory. Les alpinistes l'appellent parfois « Sœur de l'Everest ». Son sommet est souvent parcouru à cause de sa relative facilité et de sa vue dégagée sur l'Everest et le Lhotse.
