Himalayan
Everest's mountain range
Himalayan describes things relating to the Himalayas, the mountain range in South Asia containing Earth's highest peaks.
A Himalayan cat is a longhaired breed with coloring like a Siamese—named for the color pattern found in Himalayan rabbits.
Figuratively, Himalayan suggests enormous scale: a Himalayan task, Himalayan ambitions.
