Pisang Peak (6119m.)
 
Seen from the Pisang 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 Ongre the peak is a little more interesting and can be seen as a curved ridge, with the face above Pisang 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 as well as the great rock slabs further down the valley. The climbing of Pisang is quite steep although without difficulty to the summit. Descent is made by the same route.
