Mt. Dhaulagiri Expedition (8,167m.)
North West ridge
Dhaulagiri: The seventh highest mountain in the world and the highest mountain located entirely within Nepal. This is in the north central Nepal. Dhaulagiri's crest stretches for thirty miles, lending structure to an otherwise tangled topography of twisting ridges, glaciers, and ice falls. Along the main crest, several pyramid-shaped peaks rise.
Four of these summits, numbered from east to west, rise above 25,000 feet.
