OVERVIEW
Putha Hiunchuli 7246M (Dhaulagiri VII) is one of the seven thousand-meter mountain expeditions that can be climbed in the Autumn season without unreasonable avalanche hazards, fewer crevasse hazards, and remote mountain climbing experiences with few climbing teams in any given year. Putha Hiunchuli is the last 7000M peak that marks the end of the snow-capped mountain in the Dhaulagiri Himalayan section. As this is the extension of Dhaulagiri 8167M/26795FT (7th highest) the main mountain can be seen and towards the east follows Annapurna South and Ganesh Himal. This mountaineering adventure is specifically for those climbers who prefer a remote and beautiful secluded trekking route and a remote mountain in the Himalayan Range of Nepal far-far away from well-known destinations such as the Everest or Annapurna region.
Pre-requisite experiences (at least one or more): Kilimanjaro, Mt. Elbrus, Lobuche East & Island Peak, Chulu West, Khumbu 3 Peak expeditions, Aconcagua, Mt, Blanc. (Similar 4000M - 6000M peaks or higher)
