MT. PUMORI EXPEDITION
To the Northwest of Nepal lies the fascinating country of the legendry Sherpas.
In this land of mountains, Pumori stands aloof and proud as if aware of its
intense effect on the valley below. Pumori, this incredible pyramid of snow and rocks, is
indeed the pride of the Solo Khumbu. Pumori is generally considered to be technically challenging and requires
climbers to be experienced as well as in faultless physical condition. For one
such climber this mountain could become the most rewarding challenger in the
Himalaya.
Our trek starts off at Lukla. For the actual climb we will use the classical
route first opened by a German -Swiss team. This route
requires the least amount of technicality but is exposed to objective dangers
such as avalanche prone section and a section exposed to sera fall. The Base Camp is
at an altitude of 3500m and the advanced camp at an altitude of
5900m.
