 Known
as Lhauche among the Locals, this attrictive
summit rises above the town of Lhauche
which is just a few kilometer from the
Mt. Everest. There exist two distinct
summits on this peak and our objective
is to get on the 6,119m/20.075ft. high
eastern summit. Our climbing route on
this peak is South Ridge. The recorded
first ascent on this peak was by Laurice
Nielson and Ang Gyalzen Sherpa on 25
April 1984.
We fly to Lukla (Gateway for trek
and climbs in the Everest area), to
begin our trek for the climb. On our
way to the base camp, we pass through
the famous Sherpa town of Namche Bazaar,
the Tengboche monastery  (the
cultural / religious center for the
Sherpa people of Everest region),
Pangboche (oldest and permanently
settled highest amongst all Sherpa
villages), Dingboche (probably highest
place in the world for barley cultivation).
Before commencing the climb, we trek
up to Kalapathar for a close view
of Mt. Everest. Our base camp for
Lobuje is eastablished near a hidden
lake in a rocky hollow at the base
of the glaciated South West Face near
Point 5,551m/18,212ft. The views of
Amadablam and Tawache are spectacular
from here. We climb steep terrain
leading beneath the main glacier on
the South West Face of Lobuje and
gain access to the South Ridge. Higher
on the ridge, we place a high camp.
From the high camp, we continue futher
on the South Ridge and then follow
the summit ridge north-west.
From the summit, we have a great
view of Mt. Everest and a 360 degree
Himalayan panorama that include all
important peaks in the Khumbu Valley.
We descend from the summit to the
base camp for the night and next day
head down to Lukla to catch our flight
to Kathmandu. This climb is a beautiful
climb with some technical challenges.
