The first ascent to the Pokhalde peak was in
1953 via Kongma La along its north ridge by John
Hunt and his Everest Expedition Team. The peak
looks like a crenulated rocky ridge dominated by
the huge bulk of Nuptse. The peak has small
glacier, which is best reached along the ridge
rising from the Kongma La, on its northern side.
