Pisang
Peak rises above Pisang village in a uniform slope of ice
and snow to the final summit pyramid.. This peak is considered
one of the easiest climbing peaks among the trekking peaks
in Nepal. To reach the base camp from Pisang village, the
path ascends through sparse wood and pasture to a Kharka at
(4,380m) which is the best place for setting up the base camp.
High Camp is set up at (5,400m) climbing to a shoulder on
the South-West Ridge. There will be snow at the high camp
from the end of November to the end of March. The well-defined
ridge leads to the final snow slope. This is quite steep,
but not difficult to reach the summit. Descent is made on
the same route. |
