  • Die Erstbesteigung Des Cho Polu in Der Nachmonsunsaison 1999
    Die Erstbesteigung des Cho Polu in der Nachmonsunsaison 1999 Expeditionsbericht von Dr. Olaf Rieck Der Cho Polu von Südwesten im Abendlicht Die Unternehmung, über die im Folgenden berichtet werden soll, ist die Erstbesteigung des 6735 Meter hohen Cho Polu in der Everest-Region des nepalesischen Himalaya. Ich möchte interessierte Bergfreunde in diesem Expeditionsbericht vor allem mit den Dingen konfrontieren, die zu den am Berg notwendigen Entscheidungen geführt haben. Nichts von dem, was wir uns im Vorfeld bei der Erarbeitung der Strategie und Taktik für die Besteigung ausdachten, hatte dann in der harten Realität vor Ort Bestand. Ständig mußten wir uns an die neu vorgefundenen Bedingungen am Berg anpassen, alte Entscheidungen über den Haufen werfen, neue treffen. Wir mußten improvisieren vom ersten bis zum letzten Tag. Das fing schon bei der Auswahl des Berges selbst an. Der Gipfel auf dem nächsten Bild ist der berühmte Island Peak, 6189 m hoch. Er ist sicher einer der meist bestiegenen Sechstausender Nepals. Sein Name stammt von dem berühmten britischen Bergsteiger Eric Shipton, der sich bei seinem Anblick an eine Insel erinnert fühlte, umgeben von einem Meer aus Gletschereis. Der Island Peak vom Gipfel des Cho Polu aus aufgenommen Der Island Peak, den die Sherpas Imja Tse nennen, steht in der Khumbu-Region des Himalaya im Nordosten Nepals, in welcher der Mount Everest, der Lhotse und auch der Cho Oyu zu finden sind. Im Februar 1997 war ich mit einer Freundin an diesem Berg unterwegs. Wir wollten ihn im Winter besteigen und einen kleinen Film über diese Besteigung drehen. Im Jahr zuvor waren wir hier ebenfalls im Winter wegen starken Schneefällen gescheitert.
