Peak |
There is ontroversy
regarding the name and location of the Chulu peaks.
There are several peaks forming part of Chulu
massif but these are not always indicated on maps.
It is therefore sometimes difficult to differentiate
between the two trekking Chulus (East and West)
as the group comprises of four peaks, two to the
east and two to the west. To add further confusion,
Chulu West may also be called Chulu Central. Chulu
West lies to the north of Annapurna above the
Manang Valley and is the highest of the peaks.
It was first climbed in 1952 by a Japanese Expedition.
The Base Camp for the climb is situated in a small
valley north of Manang, off the main trail to
the Thorang La. At Chauri Lather we take a narrow,
steep trail up to a Base Camp at 4800m. From there
we climb steep, rocky ground to a high camp at
about 5300m. There is no technical difficulty
involved in reaching the summit, but progress
can be slow as the slopes are vulnerable to avalanches
in certain conditions.
