 Nepal
Himalaya is known as the rooftop of the world. There are
1,310 peaks above 6000 meters of which 238 are already
opened for climbing. Likewise, out of fourteen 8000 meters
above peaks eight of them, including the highest peak
in the world, Mount Everest lie in Nepal. Other seven
are namely Kanchenjunga, Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Dhaulagiri,
Manaslu and Annapurna.
The Mt. Pumori Base camp can be reached
Kathmandu – Lukla flight and trekking via Namche
Bazaar, Thangboche – Pheriche and Lobuche. Mt. Pumori
is 7145m. high and ascent starts at 5,300m; which is beside
a beautiful small lake from here you can get a beautiful
sight of Mt. Everest and Kalapthar at 5545m.
Normal route: This
is the easier route to climb this peak and most of the
expedition coteries climbed this peak so far have used
this route. As you know Pumori is not easy as like the
other mountains, there are difficult technical parts in
this route as well. We suggest you, you should take climbing
Sherpa and who will guide you to reach the Summit.
You need to have at least 3 camps after
base camp to reach the summit. The base camp is just above
Gorek Shep at the altitude of 5300m. After base camp,
you can set up first camp at the altitude of 5,650m. around
the phase of Mt. Pumori.
You should set second camp at the ridge
after the phase at the altitude of 6,000m. The most technical
part for this peak is around camp 1 and 2. You should
set camp 3 at the altitude of 6,480m,around the corner
after the ridge.
You can ascend summit from the camp
3 to the top of Pumori. Most of the climbers use this
route for the expedition to Mt. Pumori in every year.
South - West ridge: Some very
few climbers tried this route, but it is very difficult
routes. This route follows directly from the top of Kalapathar
and goes straight over the ridge nearly by 75 Degree.
As this route has lots of technical difficulties. We suggest
you to use the normal route for the Mt. Pumori and you
& your group will comfortably reach the Top. For the
more information please check Himalayan Journal 1996 or
American Alpine Journal 1997. This book written by Climber
who have been scaled the Mt. Pumori.
