Journey to Thulagi Base Camp: Challenges and Hazards in the Himalayas

The right bank of the Changli glacier.  Thulagi base camp is established at 3800m after 5 days of walk from Syange. Till there the usual transport carry from Kathmandu, Besisahar and Syange, down before Pungi (6540m) is seen, the trek along the Dudha Khola has been difficult walking. After crossing it close to the Khasonta Khola, it also takes 9 to 11 hours through dense forest and complex moraine to reach the base camp, everybody should carry the water from glacier as there’s no water at this site.
Toward the right side of the North West face a prominent snow ice spur is there. It can also be traveled from the same line as the Japanese had done it a long ago. There are large hanging seracs on either side of the spur, generally makes the route defective and dangerous. At the start of the seracs and above there the climbing route has crossed through the broken glacier, based the base camp at 4000m. Where’s there is a little snow and the slope is not steep, above 5000, the angle is creased to 40-50 degree’s elevation with a lot of snow.

Trip Information

We can follow the same route which Japanese has used long ago to climb Mt Thulungi. There is a prominent snowy ice spur toward the right side of the northwest face, which we can climb towards the right flank. A large hanging serac can be seen on either side of the spur, which has made the route quiet dangerous and difficult.
An advanced base can be fixed at 4,000m at the beginning of the serac. Climbing above route has been crossed through broken glacier, where there is a little snow and the slope is not steep. The angle is creased to 40-50°’s above 5000m elevation with much more snow. The angle gradually increases on the upper slopes.  The Japanese high point can be passed and 4/5 days after leaving advanced base, you reach at the ridge’s top of the face (ca 6,400m). From here you can descend down easily from here and can reach the plateau at 6,250m. This high-altitude plateau is the upper Thulagi glacier forming a sort of shoulder to the south west of Mount Manaslu. It is bordered by the summits of Thulagi 7059m. We can see 29 peaks from there (mount Ngadi Chuli, 7,871m). The beautiful mount Manaslu itself can be seen from there. The route to to Thulangi from South face is difficult.
