Lobuche Peak |
|
There exist two distinct summit
to Lobuche peak: Lobuche east ( 6119m/ 20,075ft
) and Lobuche west ( 6145m/ 20161ft ). Although
they are connected by a continuous ridge there
is a sharp gap and a considerable distance
between them. The trekking peak permit is for
the east peak, whilst Lobuche west, well seen at
the head of the Lobuche glacier, requires and
expedition permit. Lobuche is also spelt Lobuche
on some maps.
Lobuche peak is an attractive summit, offering a
variety of existing routes and wide scope for
new lines. Seen from near Pheriche, the dark
triangle of its rocky east face rises above the
moraines of the Khumbu Glacier to and icy
skyline. This skyline forms the south ridges,
the junction of the east faces with the
glaciated south west face and the line of the
normal route of ascent. This in turn leads to
the summit ridge running north west from the top
of the east faces through several small summit
to the east peak. |
