Manaslu – 136++ Summits<\/h3>\n
As of September 29, 2024, the Nepal Ministry of Tourism has issued 308 permits to foreigners, so adding a support ratio of 1.5 for each foreigner puts around 770 people at the peak. \u00a0However, reports say the mountain doesn’t feel crowded. Last year, in 2023, the Nepal government issued 301 permits to foreigners and 394 in 2022. Multiple teams have summited Manaslu, including:<\/p>\n

Cho Oyu – Ropes to the Summit<\/h2>\n
Seven Sherpas from several teams summited Cho from Tibet while fixing the route.<\/p>\n
From Tibet<\/h3>\n
Adventure Consultants<\/a> with four members, one guide and an unspecified number of Sherpas is staged at Base Camp: “Another change for anyone climbing 8000ers in Tibet is the new rule that everyone must use supplemental oxygen above 7000 meters. This applies to Everest, Cho Oyu and Shishpangma. This will discourage many purists and those looking to climb all fourteen sans Os.” Madison Mountaineering<\/a> is also ready for their push as are a few other teams.<\/p>\n
\nFrom Nepal\u2013 No Updates<\/h3>\n
A Russian team is attempting Cho Oyu<\/strong> by the SSW ridge on the Nepal side. This route has been tried several times over the past few years, with Nepali guides hoping to use it as an alternative to Tibet’s significantly easier normal route. The Himalayan Times<\/a> reports that only 21 climbers have successfully topped out from Nepal.<\/div>\n<\/div>\nDhaulagiri \u2013 No Updates<\/h3>\n
A five-person Russian team was targeting September 29 for their summit of Dhaulagiri, but there are no current updates. Bad weather had stalled their progress at a few points.<\/p>\n
Makalu \u2013 No Updates<\/h3>\n
The Himalayan Times<\/a> reports that Two Ukrainian climbers are on Makalu attempting a new route,\u00a0but there are no current updates.<\/p>\n
Everest Ski Expedition \u2013 No Updates<\/h3>\n
A $1 million expedition to ski the Hornbein Couloir on Everest’s Tibet side, sponsored by The North Face and National Geographic, has returned in 2024 after being canceled last year. The Chinese had issued them a climbing permit but not one for skiing. Upon initial arrival at the border, Jimmy Chin and Conrad Anker were denied entry into Tibet.<\/p>\n
This year, The Himalayan Times noted that Americans Jimmy Chin, Jim Morrison, Mark Fisher, Tibetans, Nepali Sherpas, and Mingma David Sherpa would make the attempt. The expedition honors Hilaree Nelson, who died while skiing from the summit of Mt Manaslu in 2022. \u00a0The other members continued to base camp and established C2, but the weather moved in, and the expedition was called off with still no skiing permit.<\/p>\n
Safe climbing to all.<\/p>\n
