Changtse Expedition Spring

Changtse Expedition SpringChangtse meaning north in Tibetan. This peak is north of mt. Everest. It is 7550m high from sea level. Changtse peak was first climbd in1982 by German expedition group. Before 11 days of climbing this peak Dutch climber Johan Taks part of Everest expedition had already climbed this

Tibet Climbing Sherpa for Himalayan: Changtse is located at north of Everest hence in Tibet, the name Changtse which is Tibetan for north peak. Two other well-known peaks of the Everest-group; Lhotse (4th highest mountain in world) and Nuptse mean respectively south and west-peak. Changtse was first ascended in October 1982; officially by a German expedition; but it had already been climbed by the Dutch climber Johan Taks; only 11 days before. I bet the Germans must have thought the peak was still virgin…. Taks was a member of the 1982 Dutch Everest-expedition (Tibetan side; east Rongbuk), and climbed the mountain apparently without a permit against the will of the other expedition members. Nowadays the mountain receives little attention; only 1 or 2 (Chinese) additional expeditions have been listed. Changtse (7,550m) Expedition Entry/Exit Zhangmu
