Record of the first ascent to Manaslu. The expedition was led by Yuko Maki and was made up of twelve Japanese climbers supported by 21 Sherpas, with Gyalzen Norbu as their sirdar. They approached the mountain via the Buri Gandaki valley to its east and established a base camp near the snout of the Manaslu Glacier. From here they established camps along a complex route to a plateau on the north-eastern side of the mountain at around 6800m. The weather was fine, but on this section of the route the climbers were hampered by high winds.
