Mt. Kyajo Ri (6186m) is one of the most challenging trekking peaks in Nepal which is located in a remote valley of Khumbu. Kyajo Ri required mostly an expedition style of climbing with setting up Base Camp, Camp I & Camp II, then summit. This mountain has a fine steep sweep of rock, 1000m high, on its East face, which is the one most easily seen from Machhermo village, in the Gokyo Valley. The south-East Ridge is protected by steep towers, with good rock initially, though the rock seems to deteriorate further up. The North-East face would be a hard but fine route to try, though access to the hanging glacier below the face is exposed to serac fall. The South face is just rotten rock and piles of stones.
The 'Normal' route (South West ridge) is accessed via the South-East col (two steep mixed sections required to get there from Machhermo) and a descent to the Kyajo glacier below. Mostly 55°-60° snow and ice, some serac exposure, with some steeper mixed ground near the summit. Excellent view of the whole Khumbu region could be seen amazing in panorama.
