PHAPCHERMO (6187m.)
Trekking peak in Rolwaling Region
Phapchermo peak (6187m/20298ft) was
first climbed in 1955. This is a
relatively attractive snow peak, which
lies due south of Tashi Lapcha. It has a
well defined north by north-west ridge
rising from the crevassed glacier
astride the Tashi Lapcha. To the west of
the ridge the face forms a uniform snow
slope broken by crevasses and seracs
rising from the rocky lower buttresses
above the Drolambau glacier. Access to
Phapchermo is mainly through the
Rolwaling valley. For most of the 1980's
this route was closed due to the
potential dangers which could be causes
to the porters crossing the Tashi Lapcha.
The only other route from the Khumbu
side via Namche Bazaar and Thame. Now
the Rolwaling valley has once again been
opened for trekking. The journey through
Rolwaling takes one climbing a peak or
two and crossing a high glaciated Pass
followed by a descent and a return trek
through new country. The trip through
the Rolwaling valley is truly considered
an exhilarating "mountaineering
adventure". |
