Cholatse (6440m) is located in Khumbu Himalaya region and alternatively known as Jobo Lhaptshan. Cholatse is connected to Taboche (6,501m) by a long ridge. Comparatively Cholatse Peak is very hard to climb than some of other trekking peak in Nepal. Only few climbers scaled this peak. Climbers need a vast mountaineering ability to climb this peak.
The Chola glacier descends off the east face. The north and east faces of Cholatse can be seen from Dughla, on the trail to Mount Everest base camp. Cholatse was first climbed by Vern Clevenger, Galen Rowell, John Rowell and Bill O'Connor via the southwest ridge on April 22, 1982. The north face was successfully scaled in 1984.
