Climbing in Nepal >> Mardi Himal (5587m) Peak Climbing
One
of the good-looking trekking route in Annapurna Area, "Mardi Himal"
is truly adventurous for trekking peak climbing which lies less than
15 miles from Pokhara and is the most southerly peak of the Annapurna
range. It is the lowest and the least climbed or visited peak. Photographs
of Mardi Himal taken in 1953 by Baisl Goodfellow first drew the attention
of western climbers, and Jimmy Roberts who, with two Sherpas, climbed
to the summit by a route on its East face in 1961.
The valleys and ridges south of Mardi Himal are steep and heavily wooded
with bamboo and rhododendron. Obviously, the peak has superior view
of the the Annapurna ranges and certainly a fantastic one of Machhapuchhare
the better known as Fish Tail Peak. A small number of westerners visit
the valleys and ridges south of Mardi Himal. They are steep sided and
heavily wooded with bamboo and rhododendron. Above the forest high alpine
pastures provide good grazing and a habitat for undisturbed wildlife.
in spite of it lowly altitude the mountain evidently has a great deal
of potential for those interested in small-scale exploratory mountaineering
and the ridges, already mentioned, present palpable climbing challenges
at a reasonable standard.
Mardi Himal peak climbing and Expedition gives you the total joy in your trek. When we descend through the forest we find a different route down to the upper Mardi khola. Although villages of Mardi Expedition is remote and not used more in trekking but takes you to the warm and friendly villages. Expedition to Mardi Himal Peak offers you a lesson to trek the highest mountain as it is the first step. At the end we proceed to the bank of Mardi Khola from the hill side through the lovely fields, passing simple farms over the interesting bridges in the Nepali countryside.
The climb has problems with route finding and effort but little technical difficulty: the couloirs leading to the col on the East Face can present an avalanche danger with fresh snow. The climb begins by heading steeply towards the col on the connecting ridge between Mardi Himal and Machhapuchhre. High camp is usually placed just below the final steep (45 degrees) couloirs leading to the col (about 4,650 m. /15,256 ft.) From high camp, climb to the col and turn west, ascending steep snow slopes to the summit.
