Mount Baruntse (7129m) is located in between on
the lap of Everest and Makalu Mountain, This
Mountain was first ascended by Colin Todd and
Geoff Harrow on 30th May 1954. They have climbed
the mountain by the South -East Ridge. Since
then many climbers have used this route and got
succeeded.
The approach to the mountain follows the Mera
Peak trek up to Mera-La and then to Baruntse
base camp (5300m). Baruntse base camp is
normally established above the five holy Lake of
Panch Pokhari (5400m) and 2 higher camps on the
mountain. The route is not technically demanding
and essentially a straightforward climbing on
snow and ice with some sections of overhanging.
Normally, two high camps are established above
the base camp in Baruntse climbing. The camp 1
is set up just below East Col. at an altitude of
5,700m and the camp 2 is on the South – East
Ridge at a height of 6,420m. After a successful
summit of mount Baruntse, we cross Amphu Laptsa
Pass and enter to Upper Khumbu region. The
return trek will be enjoyable by visiting most
of the Sherpa villages like, Dingbuche,
Pangbuche, Tyangbuche, Khumjung, Khunde and off
course the Namche Bazaar, the capital of Khumbu
region.
