Island Peak (5732m.) |
| his is the most popular trekking
peak in Nepal. From Dingboche the mountain is seen as an
island in a sea of ice. The summit is interesting and
attractive with a highly glaciated west face rising from
the Lhotse Glacier.The Mountain itself is the extension
of the South Ridge of Lhotse Shar separated by a small
col. The ridge rising to the south from this point leads
to the summit of Island Peak. The extension of this
ridge descending southwest is the part of the normal
route of ascent and leads to the South Summit. Imja Tse
not only provides an enjoyable climb but also provides
some of the most spectacular scenery of Himalayas in the
Khumbu region. Seen from the summit the giant mountains,
Nuptse (7,879m), Lhotse (8,501m), Lhotse Middle Peak
(8,410m) and Lhotse Shar (8,383m) make a semi circle in
the north. The views of Makalu (8475m) in the east,
Baruntse and Amadablam in the south add more charm for
climbing Island Peak. |
