Manaslu 2003 featuring Dan Mazur
|

Manaslu, at 8163 meters, is the eighth highest
peak in the world. It is located in the
west-central part of Nepal, and our team will
climb it by the original route. We will be
climbing during the "spring" or " pre-monsoon"
season, when the hazards of weather and snow and
avalanche are traditionally at their lowest. Dan
Mazur Jeff
Justman will be co-leading this expedition, his
reports are here. |
Dispatch Eight: Dear EverestNews.com,
We wanted to mention
some interesting news that Arnold Coster has a good
chance of being the first Dutch person to reach the
summit of Manaslu, with the weather getting better
now, and the Dutch expedition going back to
Kathmandu tomorrow. So, this is a really exciting time
for Dutch climbers to watch the EverestNews.com site
and see if Arnold can become the first one from his
country to reach the Summit. And, Arnold's girlfriend,
Elselien te Hennepe, is in basecamp waiting and
watching too. Thanks a lot for your interest and hard
work to show Himalayan climbing at its best!! Yours
Sincerely, from all of us at SummitClimb.com
Also please read JJ

Note
EverestNews.com is covering this expedition, along
with numerous other 8000 meter expeditions this
Spring 2003 exclusively.
