SINGU CHULI PEAK
Singu Chuli, an attractive mountain for climbing, is also
known as Fluted Peak . The mountain can be seen from
Annapurna South base camp but the better shape of the
mountain with pointed ridge of snow and ice is seen from the
moraines above the lodges. The normal route for Singu Chuli
climbing is from North-East Face.
We follow the trekking trail up to Machhapuchhre base camp
and then cross South Annapurna Glaciers and moraines to
reach grassy meadows to a rock overhang which can be used as
base camp ( 4,200m.). We climb through the glaciers towards
north and pass through grassy shelf to reach a ridge where
we will set up high camp ( 4,900m.). From this camp we
continue climbing between the glaciers and the flank of the
mountain to reach a plateau below the North-East Face. We
will fix Camp I on a shelf ( 5,600m.) just below the center
of the face. We climb towards right hand which lead us just
below a vertical wall (122m.). We follow a gully on the left
and climb steep steps to gain upper section of the
East-Ridge and then to the summit.
