Of the two Chulus (East and West), Chulu west is the higher
Peak. It was first ascended in 1952 by a Japanese
Expedition. The base camp of this peak is situated in a
small valley north of Manag, off the main trail to the
Thorang La. There is a controversy regarding the name and
location of the
Chaulu
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 four peaks. Two in the
east and two in the west, Chulu west may also be called an
Chulu Central. There is no technical difficulty in
ascending this peak but the progress can be slow as the
slopes are vulnerable to avalanches in certain conditions.
