Pisang
Peak 6091 Expedition 2004
Seen from
Pisang peak, the peak rises from yak pastures above
the village in a uniform slope to the final summit
pyramid which is an undistinguished snow and ice
slope. Looked at from above the peak is a little
more interesting and can be seen as a curved ridge,
with face above Pisang peak being the truncated
southern end of the mountain. This is made up of
steeply tilted 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.
The Peak
obviously has a lot of scope for exploration and
pioneering. The whole of the western flank, which is
guarded by a hanging glacier, would appear to offer
a considerable challenge, whilst a traverse of the
whole summit ridge which connects to a more northern
summit before curving back west looks 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.
