The Lobuche East Peak Climbing is part of the Eastern Solukhumbu District
Nepal. The Lobuche has two summits, East (6,119 m) and West (6,145 m), connected
by a continuous ridge. There is still a sharp gap and a considerable distance
between them meaning they are rarely climbed together. Many aspiring Everest
teams climb Lobuche for acclimatization as the summit is the same altitude as
Camp 1 and it saves making at least one dangerous trip through the Khumbu Icefall. Everest View Trek
The Southeast Ridge is the most popular, graded as PD+ on the Alpine
Grading system. Teams, most commonly, climb only to a false summit on the
summit ridge. From the high camp, the route continues up a series of rocky
slabs of increasing steepness to give access to the South-East Ridge proper.
About 50 m from the main ridge the end of the slab and there is a 45-degree snow
slope to ascend onto the ridge itself. The start of the ridge is at
approximately 5,670 m and this is also a possible site for a second high camp
to make the summit day easier. Follow the ridge turning around seracs and
ascending the various bumps towards the first summit. Island Peak climbing is another
climbing in this Khumbu region.
There are no real difficulties although there is a feeling of some exposure
along the way. Between the first/false summit and the true summit, there is a
considerable descent which you may need to rappel down before the final 60
m. Laurence Nielson and Ang Gyalzen Sherpa made the first recorded ascent to Lobuje
East on 25 April 1984. As a guide, this is a more technical climb than more
popular trekking peaks such as Island Peak, Pokalde, and Mera Peak Climbing.
