  • Ribuktse Glacier drains east from 6200 m peaks along the Nepal-China border. The glacier ends in a lake that drains into Ribuktse Tso, the Headwaters of Yarlung Tsangpo (Zangbo), which originates in the Angsi Glacier and becomes the Brahmaputra River in India, (blogs.agu.org/fromaglaciersperspective/tag/yarlung-tsangpo-river-glacier-retreat).
