annapurna

 

Annapurna is the name of (refers to) a series of peaks in the Himalaya range, a long massif which highest point, Annapurna I (8091m), is the 10th highest summit in the world.

Annapurna is a Sanskrit name meaning Goddess of the Harvests.

Annapurna I was the first 8000m peak to be climbed. Louis Lachenal and Maurice Herzog, as part of a French expedition led by Maurice Herzog, reached the summit on June 3th 1950 via the north face.

East Annapurna (8026m) was the first 8000m peak to be climbed by an Spanish team (J.M. Anglada, E Civis & J. Pons on 1974) It was also the first of these peaks to be climbed in winter (Jerzy Kukuczka & Artur Hajzer on February 3th 1987).

Nevertheless, Annapurna is the 8000m peak with less summit success and with the sad record of having the biggest ratio of deaths/summits
