Makalu is the fifth
highest mountain in the world and is considered the technical mountain to
climb. Normally, four camps are set up in the approach excluding ABC which
will be set up at 5,300m. We follow the lateral moraine, hike onto the
glacier and set up the camp I at a glacial plateau at 6,150m. We further
proceed the direction of the glacier plateau in the direction to Makalu La,
climbing stretches of steep slopes and arrive at the base of the Makalu La
to set up the camp II at 7,000m. |
