Route Notes Rieder - 16 May 85 (Swiss Ohmi Kangri exped) Ohmi Kangri really has one summit; the point reached by Japanese Spr 1982 is just a point on SW Ridge. There are 2 points on SW Ridge: what Japanese called "East Peak" and "Central Peak," but the real summit is NW or "West peak." Ohmi Kangri is a large dome without difficulty. We followed SW Ridge over two teeth, the Japanese "East and Central Peaks" to highest point. The "east" and "central" peaks are no summits, only two difficulties on the ridge. Nawang Choklang was on Japanese Ohmi Kangri climb in 1982. They reached East and Central summits. All three summits appeared to be same altitude.
