༄ Dolpo Expedition Climb of 7246m Putha Hiunchuli (Dhaulagiri VII), skiers are also welcome. Our plan is simple, fly into Juphal, make the approach on foot with porter and mule support to a base camp, and then begin acclimatizing and climbing. Our base camp will have three fresh meals a day (many western dishes, pizza), each person their own two person tent, and a dining tent fully stocked for relaxing and resting between rotations on the mountain.
PLAN
- Expedition style climb of a 7000m Himalayan peak
