Between
the two Chulus, Chulu West is the higher
peak. A Japanese Expedition first ascended
it in 1952. The Base Camp of this peak is
situated in a small valley North of Manang,
off the main trail to the Thorang La. There
is a controversy regarding the name and location
of the Chulu peaks. There are several peaks
close by and are also a part of Chulu massif
but are not indicated in the map.
Thus it
is difficult to differentiate between the
two Chulus. However, the Chulu group comprises
of four peaks: two in the east and two in
the west. Chulu West may also be called Chulu
Central. There is no technical difficulty
in ascending this peak but progress can be
slow as the slopes are vulnerable
to avalanches in certain conditions in Chulu
West 6419m.
