This peak raises Yak Pasture above Pisang
Village in a uniform slope to the final summit pyramid
which is an undistinguished snow and ice slope. Above,
Ongre the peak can be seen much interesting and ca
be seen as curved ridge, with the face above Pisang
being the truncated southern end of the mountain.
This is made up steeply tiled rock, the dip slope
of which faces the valley and is well seen in this
peak and the great rock slabs further down the valley.
The peak obviously has a lot of scope
for exploration and pioneering. The whole of the western
flank which is guarded by a hanging glacier it appears
a considerable challenge, whilst a traverse of the
whole summit ridge which connects to a more northern
summit before curving back west looks a superb possibility.
Access to the western end of the ridge, how ever,
looks problematical as huge rock slabs guard the ridge,
a feature on this side of the valley. This Trekking
peak can be combined with Throng La Pass 5416 Meters
and other part of Manang Valley.
South-West Face and Ridge
In 1955, J.Wellenkamp made the first ascent from Germany.
From upper Pisang Village ascend a path through sparse
wood and pastures to a Kharka at 4380m(Base Camp).
From Base camp, a faint trail continues on open hillside
following a ridge and climbing to a shoulder on south-
west ridge at High Camp (5400m). Above, a well -defined
ridge leads to the final snow slope which leads quite
steeply although difficulty to the summit. The same
route can make descent. Peak is graded on alpine PD.
