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. 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 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.
