Phari Lapcha Peak Climbing
Phari Lapcha Peak (6017m.) is located in the popular Gokyo valley in Nepal, close to village of Gokyo and the source of the Dubh Koshi. Despite being a popular trekking area Phari Lapcha has only recently become a popular venue after being added to the permitted trekking peak list in 2002.
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. The peak looked a little more interesting from Ongre and can been seen as a curved ridge, with the face above Pisang being the truncated southern end of the mountain.
