Lobuche Peak is such a technical climb. The view from the top is absolutely fantastic and superb because of the straight view of Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, and Cho Oyu up to 8000 m, then under 8 thousand m, many more peaks, including Amadablam, Pumori, and Nuptse. First, visit Everest Base Camp (5364 m) and Kalapatthar (5545 m), then it's easy to summit Lobuche. The area mainly explored is the Sherpa lifestyle surrounding Namche Khumhung Pangboche village and its culture, customers, etc. They are the main goods and foods supplied by Yaks. We follow the sharp snow ridge to the summit ridge. We then follow the route northwest towards the main summit, passing several small snow bumps and reaching a notch. Furthermore, we then further climb steep and quite difficult snow slopes to the true summit. The peak can be climbed from the East Face by climbing a dark pyramid of slab rock and joining the South Ridge to get to the summit.
