USD $ 0 p/p

Pumori 7,161m or Pumo-Ri is a mountain on the Nepal-Tibet border in the Mahalangur section of the Himalaya. Pumori lies just eight kilometers west of Mount Everest. Pumori, which means Unmarried Daughter in the Sherpa language, was named by George Mallory. Climbers sometimes refer to Pumori as Everests Daughter.

Pumori is a popular climbing peak and the easiest route is graded class 3, although with significant avalanche danger. Pumori was first climbed in 1962 by Gerhard Lenser of a German-Swiss expedition. Two Czechs (Leopold Sulovsky and Michalec Zeduak) climbed a new route on the South face in the spring of 1996 (Joe Simpson, 1997, Dark Shadows falling).
An outlier of Pumori is Kala Patthar (5,643m/18,513), which appears as a big brown bump below the impressive south face of Pumori. Many trekkers going to see Mt. Everest up close will attempt to climb to the top of Kala Patthar. The views from almost anywhere on Kala Patthar of Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse are quite impressive on a clear day.

First successful summit of Mt Pumori was made in 1962 by Gerhard Lenser, member of a German-Swiss expedition.Main summit route of Mount Pumori is South East Ridge, World class adventure travel and tour operator proudly offers mountaineering trip in Himalayan region.

Climb through the glaciers for approx. 4 hours and reach Camp 1 at 5700m. From Camp 1, we climb the face with 40-60 degrees slope and pass through a snow wall to reach camp 2 at 6200m. From camp 2, climb through ice walls and crevasses to reach Camp 3 at 6480m.
