Trekking peak Nepal April/May 2013
Hello,I'm a 33 year old male from Canada and I will be in Nepal for 6-7 weeks in April/May 2013. I have been to Nepal couple times in the past, trekking in the Annapurna and EBC. This time, I want to climb a peak. I do not know which one yet (I'm very flexible), but need a partner in crime, who knows how to climb safely, and who does not want to use a guide. I ski/climb a lot here on the west coast and I'm looking to to this as independently as possible.
If you are interested, let me know

Hi FrancoisTo increase the chances of finding buddies consider checking/posting on trekinfo.com and trekkingpartners.com.
Permits are required for trekking peaks and a climbing guide is required to get one. More info from NMA.

All easier (trekking) peaks are so popular that climbing them without getting caught is just about impossible (at least during the climbing season). Whistle blower is awarded the same amount as the permit cost is, a few month's pay for the average Nepali. Then there are hundreds of peaks off the beaten track which can be and are quite often climbed without permits, but require high level climbing skills.4
Hi Francois,I will do the following itinerary with professional international certified guide assistance: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WZYNo1PyfS4jrbbh0xiHw3p5-Qp1i5sX9pH3_zWYDno/edit.
I will travel along just with a guide and one porter for camping part support.
If you are interested in climbing Chulu West (6419 meters) you can join us entirely or for the climbing part.
Cheers,
