Norweigan Kristin Harila<\/a>, who is on track to the summit of 14 of the 800e0rs in six months, is at Manaslu Base Camp. She is climbing with Pasdawa Sherpa<\/a>, and Dawa Ongju Sherpa<\/a>\u00a0of 8K Expeditions<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Traditions Slow to End<\/h2>\n
Not everyone is on Manaslu following a Sherpa train to the summit. Jakob Urth<\/a>\u00a0is guiding a four-person Danish team on Manalsu. They are carrying their own ropes. He tells me, “We will have a small team of Sherpas to help on the mountain, but we will be independent. BC support from SST. One of my clients and I\u00a0will climb without O2 If needed – my Sherpas and I will fix ropes to the real summit!
\nNo Danish climbers have been on the real summit\u2026so maybe we will do so.”<\/p>\nManaslu New Route<\/h2>\n
Three French climbers,\u00a0H\u00e9lias Millerioux, Symon Welfringer, and Charles Dubouloz, are attempting a new route on Manalsu this season. The normal route uses the northeast face. Millerioux gave the details on social media:<\/p>\n

It had been 5 years since I came back to #nepal<\/a> for climbing. The last time was in 2017 with @benguigonnet<\/a> and @freddegoulet<\/a> in the south face of Nuptse where we opened a track in super mountaineering at the end of 3rd year. This will cost us a beautiful golden nugget. For an extremely difficult climb in alpine style. Well to say, I have a feeling it hasn’t changed much. Streets of Kathmandu are always so awesome!<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThis time we are the lovely team @symon9v<\/a> and @charles_dubouloz<\/a> to try to open an alpine style track on Manaslu, 8167m. We have very little information on the slope we want to climb. May be this one will be impossible to engrave or too dangerous for us. It is with great humility, questions of fears and courage that I look at the slopes of this Himalayan giant. In any case it doesn’t matter if we can set foot on the mountain. We will discover a new region, new people for a wonderful journey always out of our comfort zone and to live amazing experiences with friends. you will only have timely information about our shipment via some posts that @__jeanbaptiste<\/a> will post here and there.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nEverest Ski Update<\/h2>\n
Andrzej Bargiel<\/a> and the team gave this update:<\/p>\n
We are checking in from Base Camp, the descent from camp 1 to base was very difficult, fresh snow and shifting of the glacier caused the previously laid road virtually non-existent. A moment of rest and we continue<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He wants to ski from the summit to Base camp without supplemental oxygen.\u00a0He is climbing with photographer Bartek Pawlikowski, cameraman Carlos Llerandi and eight Sherpas.<\/p>\n
Cho Oyu from Nepal<\/h2>\n
The Nepal side is rarely climbed due to avalanches and other objective dangers. Of the 3,923 summits on Cho, only 135 have been from the Nepal side. The traditional Tibet-side route is considered very safe with little objective danger. However, China has closed Tibet to climbing in the last few years due to COVID. Thus Nepali operators are eager to monetize the world’s sixth highest peak by climbing the Nepal side.<\/p>\n
In February 2022, two teams attempted and reached 7700 and 7900-meters before turning back. They explored two different routes: the\u00a0SSW ridge and the East Ridge. They feel they can build on that and reach the summit this Autumn.\u00a0Pioneer Adventure has eight foreigners underwriting the effort and are there now.<\/p>\n
