Mardhi
himal...
Machhapuchhare-the famous triangular skyline
that is seen from Lake Phewa in Pokhara -is
the most southerly high point of the Annapurna
Massif. This awesomely majestic grouping of
mountains in the central Himalaya includes 5
of the 12 highest mountains in the world and
all 5 are seen at close quarters on our route.
As you shall soon see, from a closer and more
westerly vantage point, the mountain possess
twin peaks- thus its name Machhapuchhare, meaning
"fish tail". |
MARDI HIMAL
is our access route and is the name given to
the long rising ridge and its crest that forms
the southwesterly lower slope of Mount Machhapuchare.
Ours is a 7 day expedition climbing through
the forests to above the tree line and on up
to our high altitude camp at 4100m (13600 ft.).
We establish this "High Camp" with a view to
climbing up towards the knoll of Mardi Himal
5500m (18500 ft) from which vantage point there
are the most amazing close-quarter views of
all. |
