The peak is located at 7,059 m (23,159 ft) above sea level and the prominence is at 699 m (2,293 ft). ^[2] The southward-flowing Thulagi Glacier separates the Thulagi Chuli from Manaslu, 8,163 m (26,781 ft) to the northeast and the Ngadi Chuli, 7,871 m (25,823 ft) to the east.

Climbing history

Mountaineers from Russia named Aleksander Gukov, Ivan Dozhdev, Valeriy Shamalo, and Ruslan Kirichenko successfully scaled Thulagi Chuli for the first time in September 2015. ^[3] A Russian trio attempted the peak in 2010 but they aborted on summit attempt day due to the length and complexity of the route they had chosen. ^[4]
