Chamlang, Mountain summit in Sankhuwasabha, Nepal.
The Chamlang peak reaches an elevation of 7,319 meters within the Mahalangur mountain range, featuring three distinct summits and steep technical climbing sections.
Japanese Academic Alpine Club of Hokkaido members achieved the first successful ascent of Chamlang via the South Ridge route in May 1962.
The mountain name translates to 'big bird flapping wings' in Sherpa language, reflecting the mountain's appearance within the Hongu valley landscape.
Climbers must obtain permits costing 500 USD for spring season, with the expedition requiring approximately 35 days to complete the technical ascent.
The northwest face of Chamlang presents a German-established alpine climbing route that incorporates sections of the west face, completed in 1991.
