So the name
would translate into "The Goddess rich in Sustenance" or simply "The
Provider". It was first climbed by M. Herzog & L. Lachenal in 1950. The
Annapurna Himal and the Lamjung Himal stretch from the Kali Gandaki in
the west to the Marshyangdi in the east. |
 |
Four summits make up Annapurna with the entire massif forming a
barrier on the northern side of the Pokhara Valley in Nepal. The
main summit stands to the west of the Annapurna Sanctuary. Little
was known about the mountain until 1949when Dr. A. Heim from the
windows of a Dakora aircraft viewed Dhaulagiri and Annapurna. The
aircraft could not fly high enough for proper observation or for
photographs, still the next year, June 3rd 1950, Annapurna was
conquered. It was the first eight thousanders to be climbed, this
feat was accomplished by the French.
However, all the routes on the mountain pose severe difficulties
and hence it is probably why fewer climbers have reached the summit
in comparison to other 8000m. peaks.
