Pokhalde - 5806 m.
Region - (Khumbu Himal,
Sagarmatha)
Pokhalde (5,806 m) was first climbed in 1953 via
the Kongma La along its north ridge by the 1953
Everest Expedition team led by John Hunt.
Pokhalde looks like a crenulated rocky ridge
dominated by the vast bulk of Nuptse when seen
from Nuptse. The mountain has a small hanging
glacier, which is best reached along the ridge
rising from the Kongma La, on its northern side.
Although the summit is comparatively smaller
than the rest, it provides a good viewpoint. |
