Mardi Himal is the most southerly peak of the
Annapurna range. It is the lowest and least
climbed peak. The photograph of the Mardi Himal,
taken in 1953 by Baisl Goodfellow, first drew
the attention of western climbers. The first
ascent to the Mardi Himal in 1961. The first
route was via the East Flank and it is the only
used so far. Mardi Himal separates the southwest
ridge of fishtail as a separate mass at right
angles to the ridge and it is best seen from the
south. The southwest face of the mountain has
three well-defined ridges rising from the rock
buttresses and separated by hanging glaciers.
Its east face is separated from the fishtail
ridge by a col at 5200m.
