Ascent of Chulu West and Chulu
Central are best made from a base camp in a small valley
north of Manang situated off the main trail to Thorong
La pass 5416m. Indeed some of the best views of this
peak can be had from that pass.
North-West Ridge: Go beyond the hut following the
yak pastures and walk up a ridge which leads into a
hidden valley where it is possible to find a good site
for base camp. From this camp , ascend steep scree
slopes to a col 4,900/16,076 feet), on a subsidiary
ridge that leads down from the main ridge. To the north
of the col ascend snow slope for 200 meters to the base
of a band of rock at an altitude of 5,100 meters and the
site for a possible high camp.
Climb the rock band with some difficulty to the
northwest shoulder of Chulu west 5450 meters/17,880
feets, where another camp can be established or
alter-native a camp can be placed on a snow plateau
above 5,530 meters/18,143 feets. On the first ascent and
several subsequent ascents rope was fixed on the rock
band. From the plateau continue up the progressively
narrowing ridge to the summit 6,250 meters /20,505 feets.
Descend by the some route.

Equipments checklists -
climbing trips
In addition to the above list of suggested
trekking equipment, you should take along with
various items of mountaineering tools. For any
trip which has crossed by steep, snow-covered
ground, or which has included section of glacier
travel, it might be necessary for the group
roping up as a safety precaution. To facilitate
this process of roping up, you will need to
maintain a minimum requirement, a climbing
harness, a climbing sling and two locking
carabineers. Plastic mountaineering boots, a
mountaineering ice axe and a pair of crampons
with front points are the other items of
equipment, which are required for our trekking
peak trips. (Please note: Our recommendation
that you take no more than 33 pounds of trekking
equipment DOES NOT include your plastic boots,
ice axe, crampons or harness/carabineers. During
the trek, climbing hardware will be carried
separately from your personal trek bag in-group
bags until needed).
An explanation of the equipment that you will
need
Daypacks for climbing trips
3000-4000 cubic inches. For climbing trips, you
will be required to carry more warm clothing
during the climbs and also your personal
climbing gear. For this reason, you will need a
slightly bigger daypack than for a trekking-only
trip. If you have any questions about gear,
please do not hesitate to call our office for
advice.
Equipment Rental
In order to minimize your expense outlay for
trekking and climbing equipment you may never
use again, we offer a wide range of equipment
available for rent for the duration of your
trip. All rental equipment can be picked up from
your trip leader upon arrival for your trip
