Manaslu
lies in the Nepal Himalaya, Kali Gandaki valley.
This mountain was previously known as Kutan
l. 'tang' being the Tibetan word for flat place,s
thereby describing the mountain's general summit.
It was then renamed Manaslu which comes from
the Sanskrit word "Manasa" meaning "intellect" or "soul".
T.Imanishi & G. Norbu first climbed it
in 1956. Many consider the three peaks of Manaslu
as Japanese peaks as they were the first to
reach its summit in 1956. There exist half
a dozen different routes on Manaslu today.
The south face of this "mountain of intellect" is
arguably the toughest in climbing history.
Our caravan route takes off at Sama Gaon, where
incidentally Makalu is called Kambung- after
a local god. It was here in this selfsame village
back in 1954 that the second Japanese expedition
met with bitter resistance from the locals.
They blamed the presence of the heathen foreigners
for the avalanches and pestilence on the valley.
They felt that Japanese had insulted the gods
dwelling in the mountains thereby angering
them into creating such adverse conditions.
