Route Notes Plan: Attempting 1st ascent of a peak named by the government as “Linku Chuli 2 West”, north of Tsho Rolpa Lake in Rolwaling Himal (6659m). Zhang quit at the beginning of the glacier at 4700m before reaching BC due to the difficulty of the trekking into BC. The other 7 climbers left BC at 12 pm on 27 Oct, the weather was good and sunny. They arrived high camp at 4 pm and had rest there until midnight, then they started at 1 am for the summit push. All of them summited at 10 am on 28 Oct. The weather was good and bit windy. It was very difficult climbing process. They used jumars all the time and the ice walls on the way were very steep; the routes were full of rocks and blue ice mostly. 6 climbers descended to BC at 6-8 pm on 28 oct; one Maxican female climber stayed at high camp due to being over exhausted .She came back at 10 am in the next day morning. All safe and smooth.
