Mt. Cho Oyu Expedition (8,201m.)

The great bastion of Cho Oyu(8,201m.) stands astride the Nepal/Tibet border, just 70 kilometres west of Everest. It is the world’s sixth highest mountain and of the fourteen 8,000 metre peaks, it is regarded as one of the most straightforward to climb. The normal route ascends the north-west face from the Tibetan side of the Nangpa La, the old trading route to Nepal . This will be our route of ascent.
According to Lamas (Buddist Monk), ‘Cho’ is the sacred test whereas ‘Oyu’ is the Sherpa word for turquoise. A turquoise is a blue or greenish-blue precious stone. Thus the ‘Cho-Oyu’ is known as goddess of turquoise. Its towering peak stands with Everest well above the surrounding mountains.
