Thapa Peak

Tilicho peak is a little bit hard to climb than the other mountains having a height of around 7000m. The way to this mountain climbing has two ways up to its base camp. One way goes via the Marshyangdi valley route and another way goes via the Kaligandaki valley route. If the teams go through Kaligandaki valley then it is very hard to cross the Messocanto pass, which is situated at 5300m altitude. From the top of this Messokanto pass, the tranquil view of Tilicho lake can be seen.

The base camp is located near the Tilicho Lake at 4800m high. It takes a few days rest for acclimatization at this base camp. The camp 1 at 5800m is located on a long way distance through the ridges of the mountain. It is a little bit hard times to reach and climb on camp 1. From there also the panoramic view of Tilicho lake down below can be seen.

Camp 2 is located at a high of approximately 6200m and way is more difficult to reach this point. We should use the fixed rope on the way to reach camp 2. The elevation is about 40 Degree slope. From camp 2, the way directly goes to the Top of the Tilicho peak; and the climbing is a little bit hard with an elevation of 60 degrees up towards the top Tilicho peak. Some times there are chances of an avalanche, so the team should be careful at this time to go ahead climbing. By end of reaching on the top, the ridge is a little bit difficult to climb.
