Kwangde
Ri Peak Climbing |
Area:
Khumbu Himal in the Everest Area Kwangde Ri is also
called Kongde Ri and Kwande on various maps. This
difficult mountain forms an impressive multi-summited
ridge on the eastern end of the Lumding Himal, which
in turn can be regarded as part of the Rolwaling Himal.
Rising south-west of Namche Bazaar above the Bhote
Kosi river, the mountain's northern flank forms an
impressive barrier that throws down several steep
ridges to the north.
It's glaciated southern flank is more aloof. It is
hidden at the northern end of the Lumding Drangka,
a high and remote valley bounded to the west by the
tumbling glaciers of Karyolung (6,511m/21,361ft),
Khartang (6,853m/22,484ft) and Numbur (6,959m/22,831ft).
The Lumdring valley is rarely visited by trekkers
or expeditions. At the northern end of the valley
the stream cascades down a natural rocky barrier above
which is a moraine-bound lake, the Tsho Og, at the
snout of the Limding Glacier. North of the Tsho Og,
itself hidden in a huge rocky cwm, is the massive
Lumding Tsho Teng (5,151m/16,899ft).
All of the routes climbed to date on the Kwangde Peaks
are difficult, none have proved suitable for commercial
trekking peak expeditions. The routes on the North
Face are particularly difficult and reflect recent
developments in lightweight Himalayan climbing, with
an emphasis on technical difficulty and a high degree
of commitment. They have invariably been made by two
climbers without support camps or fixed ropes, although
in at least one case a subsequent ascent has seen
a return to traditional siege style tactics with masses
of fixed rope and camps. Even the routes on the South
Face are commiting and difficult, although the climbing
is more traditional in character.
The first ascent of Kwangde Lho was made by a Nepalese
expedition in 1975 which was led by Kumar Khagdar
and Bikram Shah. The actual summit was reached on
17 October by Lhakpa Tenzing. Sonam Gyalzen, Shambhu
Tamang and Sonam Hisi via the South Ridge.
Experienced climbers who are looking for rarely climbed
and challenging small peak in the Himalayas will find
this peak very attractive. Further Information to
arrange a climb to this peak will be provided on request.
