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. |
