Route
Jeff Justman
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.

JJ Dispatch Camp 1 Manaslu!

The Manaslu Team 1 has made it to Camp 1! They will be up there for approximately 10 days or so. They had horrendous weather with up to 7 feet of snow at base camp prior to their attempt of moving to Camp 1 at 19,000ft. The weather let up and they moved on up yesterday.

Their plan is to spend 7-10 days fixing line up to the other camps all the way up to high camp at just below 25,000 ft.  

JJ said it was a long day to Camp 1. They are glad the trip up the mountain is progressing. The rest of the team should arrive around April 13th or so. Ciao!
