Ascent
of Chulu West and Chulu Central are best made from a
base camp in a small valley north of Manang situated
off the main trail to Thorong La pass 5416m. Indeed
some of the best views of this peak can be had from
that pass.
North-West Ridge: Go
beyond the hut following the yak pastures and walk up
a ridge which leads into a hidden valley where it is
possible to find a good site for base camp. From this
camp , ascend steep scree slopes to a col 4,900/16,076
feet), on a subsidiary ridge that leads down from the
main ridge. To the north of the col ascend snow slope
for 200 meters to the base of a band of rock at an altitude
of 5,100 meters and the site for a possible high camp.
Climb the rock band with
some difficulty to the north-west shoulder of Chulu
west 5450 meters/17,880 feets, where another camp can
be established or alter-native a camp can be placed
on a snow plateau above 5,530 meters/18,143 feets. On
the first ascent and several subsequent ascents rope
was fixed on the rock band. From the plateau continue
up the progressively narrowing ridge to the summit 6,250
meters /20,505 feets. Descend by the some route.
