Nepal
is one of the small,beautiful & most popular country
for peak climbing activities.Chulu east lying south east
of Chulu west is comparatively smaller peak. The peak
together with the Chulu west forms an integral part of
the Manang Himal that turn in included in the Damodar
Himal. The peak first ascended by a German expedition
team in 1955 via the north East Ridge. The peak is tough
and familiar for adventure seekers.
Many climbers are confused as to the exact location of
these two peaks as the range has 4 or more summits in
the immediate vicinity, which are unmarked in maps of
this area. As a result many climbing parties have mistakenly
climbed one of these peaks thinking it to be Chulu East
or West. It usually understood that with the permit to
climb the East or West peak an attempt could be made to
the nearby peak as well. A climb of one or both of these
peaks combined with Nepal's most famous Around the Annapurna
region trek make up for one of the most spectacular Himalayan
trekking and climbing.
