Today, we begin our trek from Lobuche towards Lobuche Base camp Camp. After walking some distance on relatively flatter plane, the path to the Lobuche Base Camp gets steeper and rocky. We move forward along the Lobuche Glacier while enjoying the great views of Ama Dablam, Cholatse, Pokalde, Thamserku, Kantega, etc.
Pre-Climb Training: After reaching the Lobuche Base Camp, take rest for some time and make necessary preparation for the summit. After lunch, our guides will provide training on peak climbing techniques and using climbing gears such as ice axe, climbing boot, harness, jummer, and how to go up and down using ropes. We believe that some training experience will boost up your confidence and climbing skills thus increasing the chances of scaling the summit as well as fully enjoy the experience.
Starting from the base camp, it rises rapidly to the bottom of the valley and a block area that crosses easily. We then climbed a scree on a path that leads to a small rocky ledge where it will be equipped with the harness and helmet, and watch out for falling rocks. We arrive at the upper camp ideally placed on a tray with a small lake at the foot of the final part of the route. Overnight in tent.
An early start is needed to climb to the top. A system of ledges and rock ramps that lead gradually to the foot of the last slopes of glaciated route we go back. At the same time we gain altitude, inclination is strengthened to reach 45 ° in the last section before reaching a small ledge, the "false summit". The summit ridge then leads easily to the summit of Lobuche is. The view of the peaks of extraordinary Taboche and Cholatse throughout the climb now opens a panorama of Himalayan peaks to 360 °. Overnight at Lodge.
There is no such guarantee that we can get quite a favorable weather on our planned day for the summit, so this day is used as a contingency in case if we are unable to summit the Lobuche Peak on the planned day due to bad weather condition or some other reasons. If weather gets exceptionally unfavorable we wisely have to postpone the program of summiting the peak for this day. Sometimes somebody in the group may get some problems in acclimatizing well enough to make the ascent; the day can be used in that condition too. If the trip goes smoothly and we do not need this spare day we trek down to Tengboche and rest there or Rest at Namche Bazzar a capital city of Sherpa’s.
