Pokhalde 5800m. Peak Expedition
This mountain (Everest area) was first climbed in 1953 from Kongma La along its North-ridge. Despite its relatively low altitude, the mountain’s first successful climbers were giants of the mountaineering world, a fact that is true for many of the trekking peaks.
Phokalde is an insignificant looking mountain and appears as a rocky ridge dominated by the vast bulk of Nuptse when seen from Pheriche. Seen from Lobuche or Gorak Shep, the peak looks more interesting as it rises to the south of the Kongma La (5,535m/18,159ft), an infrequently traversed pass that leads to the Chhukhung valley.
The northern side of the mountain has a small hanging glacier that is best reached along the ridge rising from the Kongma La. By and large, the rock on the mountain is poor even though it offers some interesting scrambling on the well-defined ridges. The summit provides a good viewpoint and from that perspective this is a fine little peak.
