Mt. Annapurna I is located at the solid mass of Anaapurna Himalayan Range. Annapurna is a Sanskrit name, which means “Goddess of harvests” or more simply the provider. Annapurna first is the tenth highest mountain in the world and was the first 8000m. peak to be climbed . The mountain has glaciers on its western and north-western slopes which drain into this gorge. It was first summited in 1950 by Maurice Herzog and Louis Lachenal. Annapurna was not climbed again until 1970, when British army expedition followed essentially the same route as Herzog. At same time Cris Boning led successful British expedition to the very steep and difficult south face. With only 109 ascents, Annapurna has had fewer successful climbs than any other 8000m peak.
