Chulu East Peak Climbing (6584m.)
Introduction:
Chulu East (6,584 m.) is situated high above the Manang
valley with breathtaking views across to the Annapurnas
II, III and IV, Gangapurna, Glacier Dome, Dhaulagiri, Tilicho
Peak and Manaslu. The climb is combined with the classic
trek around the Annapurna massif, ascending the Marshyangdi
valley and crossing the Thorong La, before descending the
Kali Gandaki valley to Pokhara. The climb is technically
straightforward and you should be familiar with the use
of your equipment, crampons, harness, ice axe, tying knots
and handling climbing ropes. Most of the climbing will be
involved walking roped together, including the glacial crossings.
You should be very fit and have good experience of climbing.
