Island
Peak Climbing-6189m.
Island Peak
(Imja
Tse) climbing is a most popular trekking Peaks
which can be combined
with Kala Pather and Everest Base Camp trek.
The summit is interesting
and attractive with a highly glaciated
west face rising from the Lhotse Glacier.The
mountain itself is the extension of the
South Ridge of Lhotse Shar seperated by
a small col. The ridge rising to the south
from this point leads to the summit of
Island Peak. The extension of this ridge
descending south-west is the part of the
normal route of ascent and leads to the
South Summit. Imja Tse not only provides
an enjoyable climb but also provides some
of the most spectacular scenery of Himalayas
in the Khumbu region. Seen from the summit
the giant mountains, Nuptse (7,879m),
Lhotse (8,501m), Lhotse Middle Peak (8,410m)
and Lhotse Shar (8,383m) make a semi circle
in the north. The views of Makalu (8475m)
in the east, Baruntse and Amadablam in
the south add more charm for climbing
Island Peak.
