| Mt.
Putha Hiunchuli Himal Expedition Spring 2013 |
 Putha
Hiunchuli is the westernmost peak of the Dhaulagiri
range and is sometimes referred to as Dhaulagiri
VII. It was first climbed in 1954 by Jimmy Roberts,
a legendary explorer and climber and most possibly
the father of modern-day trekking in Nepal. Range:
- Himalaya:- The Himalaya, literally
translated as Land of Snow, is the great mountain
system of Asia, home to the highest peaks in
the world. The system forms a 1500 mile broad
crescent through Northeastern Pakistan, Northern
India, Southern Tibet, Nepal, Sikkim and Bhutan.
It is bordered on the north by the high plateau
of Central Asia and on the south by the fertile
plains of the Indian subcontinent. Over thirty
Himalayan peaks exceed 25,000 feet. Nine of the
world's fourteen 8,000-meter peaks are located
here. The highest peak in the Himalaya is the
highest in the world, Mount Everest at 8,848m. Sub Range: - Central
Nepal Himalaya:- Nepal is
a small independent kingdom, located on the
southern slopes of the Central Himalaya. Only
slightly larger than Arkansas, Nepal has an
unparalleled concentration of the world's highest
mountains, including eight of the world's fourteen
8,000 meter peaks. A ninth such peak, Shisha
Pangma, is just over the border into Tibet. Nepal's
population, comprised of many distinct ethnic
groups, is a proud, kind people. Perhaps most
famous among them are the Sherpas, originally
from Tibet, who live in mountain villages not
far south from the border to their homeland.
Here the Sherpas' Buddhist culture, suppressed
by China in Tibet, is very much alive. The
sacred words Om Mani Padme Hum are seen everywhere
and prayer flags flap in the mountain winds.
Although Hinduism is actually the primary religion
in Nepal, Buddhism and Hinduism are practiced
harmoniously throughout the country. The Sherpas
live as high as 11,000 feet in winter, and
in spring they relocate with yaks and sheep
to elevations over 16,000 feet. Sherpas have
for decades served as porters for Himalayan
expeditions, and many have become excellent
mountaineers. Mustang, a small isolated kingdom
in Northern Nepal, has received much recent
interest from adventure travelers. Mustang
is an ancient kingdom, whose unique population,
language, architecture and traditions reflect
its many centuries of isolation. It was first
opened to foreign travelers in 1991, and visitation
today is still tightly regulated, though a
few commercial tour companies now offer treks
there. See the article A 12 Day Trip to Mustang
for more details about this magnificent region. Climbing
in Nepal as a whole is encouraged but tightly
regulated. Access is only allowed on government-approved
peaks, and many of these peaks have such lengthy
waiting lists that a trip must be planned years
in advance. Mountain treks (without major summits)
are possible, and offer an alternative means
of experiencing the majesty and the people
of the Nepal Himalaya. The weather is cool
in the mountains year round, with winters being
especially severe, and monsoon season creating
impossible traveling conditions as the heavy
rains bring torrents and mudslides. The best
time for climbing or trekking in Nepal is during
the pre-monsoon April, May, September, October
seasons. |
