Events Calendar
Tito will recount his recent climb of Phurbi Chyachu (6,637m) in the Jugal Himal, where we ascended the Japanese Spur in alpine style. The lecture will also explore the broader climbing history and untapped potential of this lesser-known Himalayan range, located relatively close to Kathmandu, highlighting its unique challenges and opportunities for future ascents.
The talk will be held at the Alpine Club's premises at 55 Charlotte Road, London, EC2A 3QF from 7PM on 27 May 2025.
For safety reasons, we are required to keep a register of all attendees. If you plan to attend, please complete the form below. (This applies to both members and non-members).
