The
Lobuje mountain consists of two different summits, Viz.
east and west with the height of 6119m and 6145m
respectively. A continuous ridge. Connects them but there
is still a Sharp gap and a considerable distance between
them. The east peak is recognized as a trekking peak where
as the west is known as an expedition peak.
Lobuje
being an attractive mountain offers various existing
routes and also a probability of new ones. The dark
triangle of its rocky east face rises down the moraines of
the Khumbu Glacier to a nice skyline, forming the south
ridge.
The
peak of Lobuje eastis reached by descending a marked notch
and climbing steep snowy slopes to the top. On most
occasions, the mountain is climbed on the summit ridge
only as far as a subsidiary snow summit, south-east of the
true peak and before the notch. This peak is identified as
the false peak. |
