Manaslu is one of the popular 8000m. peaks for climbing in the Himalayas of Nepal. Manaslu climbing requires more time than other 8000m. peaks in Nepal due to long approach to reach to the base of the mountain. However, helicopter can be used to make Manaslu expedition duration shorter. Possible avalanches in bad weather, crevasses and slippery snow make this mountain a little distinct from other mountains in Nepal . Normally, four camps will be set up in the approach of the mountain. There will be a few stretches of steep climbing and crevasses from Camp I to Camp II . Slippery snow climbing is required from Camp II to Camp III . Avalanches are a threat from Camp III to Camp IV .
