Mt Manaslu Expedition (8163m) - Autumn 2007
/ Spring 2007 |
|
 |
|
Manaslu (8163) have summated in 1956 by a
Japanese expedition team. Its name comes from
the Sanskrit word manasa, meaning "intelligence"
or "soul". Just as the British considered
Everest their mountain, Manaslu has always been
a Japanese mountain. HW Tillman and Jimmy
Roberts photographed Manaslu during a trek in
1950. But the first real survey of the peak was
made by a Japanese expedition in 1952. A
Japanese team made the first serious attempt on
the peak from the Budhi Gandaki valley in 1953.
When another team followed in 1954, the
villagers of Samagaon told them the first team
had been responsible for an avalanche that
destroyed a monastery and refused to let the
1954 expedition. The expedition set off to climb
Ganesh Himal instead. Despite a large donation
for the rebuilding of the monastery, subsequent
Japanese expeditions, including the one that
made the first ascent in 1956, took place in an
atmosphere of animosity and mistrust. The second
successful Japanese expedition was in 1971.There
was a south Korean attempt in 1971 and in April
1972 an avalanche that killed five ascent of
Manaslu as a member of a Tyrolean expedition
that climbed from the Marshyangdi valley in
1972.
