Pisang Peak Climbing
Overview
Overview
Pisang Peak rises from yak pastures above the village of Pisang in a uniform slope to the final summit pyramid which is an undistinguished snow and ice slope. Looked at from above Ongre the peak is a little more interesting and can be seen as a curved ridge with the face above Pisang being the truncated southern end of the mountain. This is made up of steeply tiled rock the dip slope of which faces the valley and is well seen in this peak and the great rock slabs further down the valley.
Pisang Peak Climbing obviously offers a lot of scope for exploration. Pioneering the whole of the western flank which is guarded by hanging glacier.
would appear to offer a considerable challenge, while a traverse of the whole summit ridge which connects to a more northern summit before curving back west looks like a superb possibility. Access to the western end of the ridge however looks problematical as the ridge is guarded by huge rock slabs a feature on this side of the valley.
