The mountaineers who wish to climb an 8000m peak, Cho Oyu will be their best choice since the mountain is straight forward to climb with minimal objective danger and less technically demanding. This mountain was first climbed by Austrians in 1954. It is about 30km west of Everest at the head of the Gokyo Valley. Normally, three camps are set in the approach. From base camp, we trek to the advance base camp at 5,700m. We climb through steep moraines to a shoulder at 6,400m where camp I is set up. The climbing becomes easier and our camp III is at 7,500m on the North West face. The summit is a long way at the far end of a huge snow field.
