Mt. Dhaulagiri Expedition (8166m) |
|
 |
|
Dhaulagiri; name is derivative from Sanskrit "Dhavala"
means "White" and Giri is "Mountain" The
Mountain was displayed by British surveyors in
India in the early 1800s and was mapped by one
of the secret Indian evaluator.
After four more expeditions had failed, eight
members of a Swiss expedition conquered the
summit in 1960. The Swiss expeditor first
ascended Dhaulagiri in 1960. The climb followed
a roundabout route around the mountain from
Tukuche, over Dhampus pass as French
Col, to approach the summit from the North-East
Col.
Tragedy struck in 1969 when an avalanche killed
seven members of a US expedition on the East
Dhaulagiri Glacier. The Japanese in 1970s, the
Americans in 1973 and the Italians in 1976
summited.
Highlights of the
Expedition
Exploring Thakali village and old monasteries,

of mountain desert (Mustang) and Dolpo range,
