Himalayan mountain range

The World

Some of the world’s most dangerous mountains show up in today’s Geo Quiz. These peaks we’d like you to name are seriously steep. They belong to the �eight thousander� club, meaning they’re up above the 8,000 meter, or 26,000 foot mark. So if you’re an accomplished mountain climber, you probably know the name of this 34-mile stretch, or massif in the Himalayas.
