Mount Tawoche Peak Climbing Information
Mount Tawoche Peak 6,501m. Expedition
Trip Fact
Tawoche peak also known as Taboche require all climbers need to have good skills on rock and ice climbing and technically competent, on most parts of the routes there will be fixed rope, however, the climbers should posses skills of climbing through steep rock and hard compact ice. We follow the standard South West ridge route (normal route) to the top, as it is consider the safe route, free from the objective danger such as avalanche and so on. Approach: go up boulder slopes with a couple of pitches roped to gain a small glacier. You have to attain the South East Ridge at the lowest point of a broad plateau area. Go up this platform and traverse easily across to the right onto the south face. It was first ascent was made in April 15, 1974 by a French expedition led by Yannick Seigneur, Dubost, Paul Gendre, clarinettist and composer Jean-Christian Michel.
Climb the left side of the south face to the summit. The trekking route we follow begins at Lukla (2850m) and the initial days of the trek pass through the legendary Sherpa country up the spectacular high valley of the Khumbu Valley. Most of the route on the actual climbing is fixed with no icefall or glacier to negotiate, and most of it is concentrated on the crest of a ridge. The climb is relatively safe though exposed and sheep and not really a mountain for debutantes.
