Pumori 7161m Expedition
In the Sherpa language, "Pumori" means "Unmarried Daughter". Anyone, who has made the trip to Everest, either as a climber or trekker will bear in mind Pumori's unique shape. This pyramid shaped 23,495 ft peak, located in Khumbu region overlooks the skyline behind Kala Pattar (19,000 ft). George Leigh Mallory named it as a training peak for past Everest teams, this peak now is offered as a guided climb by many different companies. There are as many as 20 expeditions in every climbing season.
The ascent starts from a beautiful base camp at 5,300m, aside a small lake, where you can pack your equipment- and to clarificate the water-let sand to drop all night. From base camp you have the most wonderful sight of Mt. Everest you can imagine, just above is Kalapattar Rock hill at 5545m.
The route follows the Southeast buttress before it traverses to the East Ridge for the remainder of the ascent. Requiring excellent physical fitness, Pumori offers sections of wild exposure, views of Lhotse and Mt. Everest, with technical difficulty worthy of any Himalayan alpinist. Pumori is a serious expedition peak and appropriate only for the experienced climbers in Himalaya.
