Putha Hiunchuli - 7246m. |
Country: Nepal |
Description |
The Dhaulagiri range is made up of some
of the world's most impressive peaks.
In this range, to the west of Annapurna South of Ganesh
Himal, lies a long ridge at the end of which stands the
serene Putha Hiunchuli. This mountain is the last 7000er
marking the end of the snow-capped range.
Our trek begins at the trading town of Dunai, which is
about a week's walk away from the German Base Camp situated
at an altitude of 4,525m.
Though the climb is technically challenging there are
many possible routes that may be explored. Technically,
the difficulty of the climb is comparable to any classical
route of the French Alps, like Mont Blanc' normal route
for example. Putha Hiunchuli's south slopes present easy
access to the different summit's base camps but the ascents
route is technically difficult due to the many ridges
and seracs. The route on the north slope was rediscovered
four years back, which crosses extremely remote and wild
terrain.
