Dhaulagiri Expedition

Dhaulagiri expedition offers a nice trek of Dhaulagiri circuit in Annapurna region. The Seventh Highest Mountain on Earth Dahuligiri 8167 m. was first sighted by the British India Survey team but unknown virtually till 1960. The Swiss team made first successful climbing to the peak by K. Diemberger and friends. It is taken as the most interesting.

Normally, four camps will be set up for Dhaulagiri climbing. Advance base camp will be set up at 5,300m. which is used for depositing the stuff and not for camping due to avalanche danger. If we could not approach the summit from Camp IV due to bad weather or other reasons, we will have to fix bivouac at 7,900m. and next Day try to push to the summit.
