Cholatse Peak climbing

USD $ 0 p/p

Cholatse 6440m peak is a mountain in the Khumbu region of the Nepalese Himalaya. Cholatse is connected to Taboche (6,501m) by a long ridge. The Chola glacier descends off the east face. The north and east faces of Cholatse can be seen from Dughla, on the trail to Mount Everest base camp.

Cholatse was first climbed via the southwest ridge on April 22, 1982 by Vern Clevenger, Galen Rowell, John Roskelley and Bill OConnor. The north face was successfully scaled in 1984. The first solo ascent was accomplished on April 15, 2005 by Ueli Steck through the north face.

Mt Cholatse climbing is staring the caravan routes fly to Lukla and all the way to Thame , via Renjo pass 5,360m climb Gokyo Ri for acclimatization, continues trekking to Cholatse Base Camp and returning from Photse all the way down to Namche or continue to via Chola La pass 5,320m Everest Base camp and final departure from Lukla.

Comparatively Cholatse Peak is very hard to climb than other peak in Nepal. Mt Cholatse is the technically difficult peak it requires careful ascent. We recommended cholatse peak for those climbers who are experience in ice and rock climbing. Only few climbers get success in cholatse peak climbing. Climbers need a vast mountaineering ability to climb Cholatse peak. Cholatse peak is connected to Taboche (6,501m) by a long ridge.

Cholatse summit enjoy the incredible view of Mont Everest, Khumbu Icefall, Pumari, range of cho oyu -khumbu Glacier Ama Dablam, Thamserku-Lubuche peak island peak kongde-Everest Base Camp etc then trekand many more.
