(6,119m/20,070ft) and Lobuje West (6,145m/20,161ft).
Although they are connected by a continuous ridge there is
a sharp gap and a considerable distance between them.
Lobuje is an attractive summit, offering a variety of
existing routes and a wide scope for new lines. Seen from
near Pheriche, the dark triangle of its rocky East Face
rises above the moraines of the Khumbu Glacier to an icy
skyline. This skyline forms the South Ridge, the junction
of the East Face with the glaciated South-West Face
and the line of the normal route of ascent. This in turn
leads to the summit ridge running north-west from the top
of East Face through several small summits to the East
Peak.
Lobuje East: The true East Peak is quite striking
and is reached by descending into marked notch and
climbing steep snow/ice slopes to the top. This is rarely
climbed and is often mistaken for Lobuje West. Most
attempts on the mountain climb the summit ridge only as
far as subsidiary snow summit, before the notch,
south-east of the true peak. The false summits east of the
notch have been attained by numerous parties, but the
first recorded ascent of the true Lobuje East seems to
have been made by Laurence Nielson and Sherpa Ang Gyalzen
on 25th April 1984.
