Mt. Manaslu (8,163m / 26,781ft) Located
28.32.58 longitude and 83.33.43 latitude
Manaslu is situated in the central
region of Nepal in the Gorkha massif is
the eighth highest mountain in the
world. The name Manaslu was derived from
the Sanskrit word "Maanas" meaning
"soul" or "intellect". Japanese were the
first to climb Manslu Mountain in 1956,
therefore it is still considered as
Japanese peak by many people. Though
there are many routes to Manslu
mountaineering , as the long ridge
Manaslu base camp and valley glacier
offer feasibility to approach from
different directions, but South Face is
considered to be the most difficult. Our
caravan route to this mountain begins
from Gorkha to Samagaon and the return
route via the Larky La/ Larky pass
trekking to the Annapurna classic route
, making the expedition one of the
memorable one for Mt. Manaslu climbing.
HW Tillman and Jimmy Roberts
photographed Manaslu during a trek in
1950. but the first real survery of the
peak was made by a Japanese expedition
in 1952.
A Japanese team made the first serious
attempt on the peak from the Buri
Gandaki valley in 1953. When another
team followed in 1954, the villagers of
Samagaon told them the first team had
been responsible for an avalanche that
destroyed a monastery & refused to let
the 1954 expedition climb. The
expedition set off to climb Ganesh
Himalayan instead.
Despite a large donation for the
rebuilding of the monastery, subsequent
Japanese expeditions, including the one
that made the first ascent in 1956, took
place in an atmosphere of animosity and
mistrust. The second successful Japanese
expedition was in 1971. There was a
South Korean attempt in 1971, and in
April 1972 an avalanche that killed five
climbers and 10 Sherpas ended the second
made the fourth ascent of mount Manaslu,
as a member of a Tyrolean expedition
that climbed from the Marshyangdi valley
in 1972. So Manaslu is one of the very
renowned lovely mountains in the world
to which, many foreigner enthusiast to
climb very curiously.
