Climbing history:
The first attempts to climb Gauri Sankar were made in the 1950s and 1960s but weather, avalanches, and difficult ice faces defeated all parties. From 1965 until 1979, the Mountain was officially closed to Climbing. When permission was finally granted in 1979, an American-Nepalese Expedition finally managed to gain the top, via the West Face. This was a Route of extreme technical difficulty. The permit from the Nepalese Ministry of Tourism Stipulated that the Summit could only be reached if an equal number of Climbers from both nations were on the Summit team. John Roskelley and Dorje Sherpa fulfilled that obligation.
In the same year, a British-Nepalese Expedition led by Peter Boardman Climbed the long and difficult Southwest Ridge. Boardman, Tim Leach, Guy Neidhardt, and Pemba Lama made it to the South “Gauri” Summit (7010m. ) on November 8, 1979. Though they did not make the long additional traverse to the main “Shankar” Summit, their Climb was a significant achievement in itself.
