First Ascent
Until Autumn 2019 Pangpoche I has witnessed at least three unsuccessful attempts. The North-East ridge (First ascent line) by Japanese in 2009 and Norwegian team in 2012. The West-Northwest ridge by Italian-Swiss Expedition in 2019.[2]
The first ascent of the peak was archived on 4th of October 2019 by Georgian team. Archil Badriashvili, Giorgi Tepnadze and Bakar Gelashvili climbed the North-East ridge over four days in alpine style.
The same trio has made first ascent of Pangpoche II earlier on September 22th, climbing complex and dangerous South-West ridge and South-Southwest face in alpine style over three days.[3]
Both ascents have been listed among most significant ascents of 2019, during Piolets d'Or (International Golden Ice Axe Award) 2020.[4]
