The sub-range has an average elevation of 6,100 m (20,000 ft) and contains many of the world's tallest peaks, including the eight-thousanders and Mount Everest, the highest peak on Earth.^[3][4] The range is mainly composed of granite rocks with permafrost, and consists of many glaciers, including the Gangotri, Khumbu, and Satopanth Glaciers.^[5][6]
