Parchamo
The mountain lies to the south of Tasi Lapcha
proving an attractive mountain as a straightforward snow peak. While approaching the
mountain we follow Everest Base Camp trek from Lukla to Namche Bazaar. We follow the
trekking trail to Thame and then Thengpo to Ngole to set up the base camp on the moraines
( 5,100m.). As we climb we arrive at another possible campsite but not advisable to set up
the camp due to rock falling danger. We continue climbing north-east of the icefall of
Tesi Lapcha and arrive just below the rock walls where we fix high camp on rocky terraces
(5,500m.). From the high camp we gain the ridge of Pacharmo which is raised from the
glaciers of Tesi Lapcha Pass. We follow the ridge without much difficulty but some time
crevasses can cause some problems near to the summit.
