The name 'Manaslu' comes from the
Sanskrit word manasa, meaning "intellect"
or "soul" It is the same root word as
that for Manasarover, the holy lake near Mt. Kailash
in Tibet. Just as the British considered Everest
their mountain. Manaslu has always been a Japanese
mountain. Manaslu (8156m) was first climbed in 1956
by a Japanese expedition. HW Tillman and Jimmy Roberts
photographed Manaslu during a trek in 1950. But
the first real ssurvery of the peak was made by
a Japanese expedition in 1952.
