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. |
