 Mount Baruntse
lies in the heart of the Khumbu massif to
the west of Mount Makalu . This captivating ridge is
surrounded by some of the most famous peaks of
the world: Mount Everest, Mount Lhotse , Mount Ama Dablam..........and
the list continues. Mount Baruntse is the most accessible
7000-meter peak in the region besides having
a normal route of ascent, which can be guided.
The first to make its summit were the already
famous Hillary and Jim McFarland. The ascent
route is through the southern ridge overhanging
the famous West pass; this is in act the traditional
route opened by Hillary and Shipton in 1952.
The regular approach begins at Lukla and takes
you across the Hongu valley, one of the most
fertile regions in Nepal , passing northward
through a beautiful alpine environment. The walk
passes through delightful Sherpa country and
provides for excellent acclimatization. The Mount Baruntse
base camp is at an altitude of around 5400m and
sits near the pristine lakes below Amphu Labtsa
pass. The route then follows a long ridge leading
to the summit. An ascent on Mount Baruntse Expedition is an adventure
for climbers wishing to meet a true Nepalese
7000 meter.
