Chulu
Far East (6059m) |

For those who love Nepal, its landscape and
people, here is a little known trekking peak
leading to a wonderful viewpoint facing the
Annapurna Great Barrier.
Chulu Massif rises north of the Marshyangdi
Khola in the Manang region and form part of the
Manang Himal, which is quite rightly included in
the larger Damodar Himal. This remote upland
area lies to the north of and in a rain shadow
formed by the main |

Annapurna
Himal. Huge glacial moraines abound etched deeply by wind
erosion into fantastic pillars. Chulu Far East ascent is not
difficult and we will settle an high camp near the col. From
that col we follow the long South-West ridge on snow and ice.
Although the approach up the Marshyangdi is relatively quick and
involves no great altitude gain, the trek takes you through a
wonderful variety of landscape and culture ; from the
subtropical lower reaches of the valley with its terraced fields
where Gurung people dominate, to the ethnically as well as
socially interesting Managba people of the upper valley,
crossing rhododendron and pine forests. After the ascent our
route crosses the Thorung La, a 5350m high pass before dropping
to Jomsom downstream the Kali Gandaki river. We fly back to
Kathmandu via Pokhara. |
