Annapurna IV is located
at the view of Annapurna IV. Annapurna
IV lies in the heart of the Annapurna
Himal and is situated between the summits
of Annapurna II and Annapurna III by a
spectacular ridge that connects all three
mountains. This ridge is an amazing wall,
which includes Annapurna I (8091m), Annapurna
II (7,937m), Annapurna III (7,555m), Annapurna
IV (7,525m), Gangapurna (7,454m) and Annapurna
South (7,220m). The famous Machapuchare
(fishtail) is also located in the Annapurna
Himal.
Above Camp I the route
from Camp 2 to Camp 3 becomes steeper
requiring fixed rope on some of the more
difficult sections including a bergschrund
that has to be crossed. Camp 3 is at an
elevation of 20,500 ft and sits at the
junction of the North Ridge and Summit
Ridge. It sits on the "Dome"
of Annapurna IV and affords us an incredible
view of the Summit Ridge. At the crest
6,483m we will place our Camp III. Here
the route turns sharp east and follows
the Annapurna crest to the summit of Annapurna
IV. The summit day above Camp III is long
but not too technically difficult. However,
there are some steep knife-edged ridges
and cornices to negotiate so don’t
think this will be easy. Above Camp I
the slopes lay back. Glacier travel skills
will come into play as we wind our way
to the top of the buttress, establishing
around 6,000m (19, 800'). From Camp II
we will have spectacular views of the
North Face of Annapurna II. From Camp
II we continue upward till we reach the
east-west crest of the Annaputna Himal.
At this point the team will decide whether
to place one more camp along the summit
ridge or make summit attempts from Camp
3. The climb along the Summit Ridge affords
us beautiful views of the Annapurna Sanctuary.
It is a spectacular place to be. The climbing
on this section will be very demanding
as we will be climbing some steep sections
on the Summit Ridge proper as well as
traversing some steep slopes below the
summit. We may also encounter some rock
on the summit pyramid. After a short stay
on the summit we'll descend to our high
camp where we will spend the night. The
next day we'll descend all the way to
Base Camp.
