Chulu East (6584m) to the north east of the Annapurna Range is an ideal objective for those extending their climbing experience beyond the trekking peaks of the Everest region. It is also well suited for an expeditionary style ascent with group members playing an active role in establishing the intermediary camps while preparing for the summit. Appreciating the delights of our approach trek in the Annapurna region we gradually ascend to the Manang Valley. After establishing base camp we plan our two intermediary camps on the North East Ridge. While our team of Sherpas provide support, group members will be encouraged to load carry and establish the high camps in order to improve acclimatisation, fitness and for optimum chances of summitting. The final ridge climb to Chulu East is technically straightforward - with rewarding views south to the Annapurnas and north to peaks that define the border of the vast Tibetan Plateau.
