Singu Chuli
(6,501 m) was formerly known as Fluted Peak. The first ascent of
this peak was made by Wilf Noyce and David Cox on its North–East
Face and the top section of the East Ridge. This mountain has
proven to be very difficult to climb for most commercial
climbing groups who have tried to concentrate on Tent Peak.
Singu Chuli is the first summit on the long ridge thrown down
from Tarke Kang (Glacier Dome), which separates the South and
West Annapurna Glaciers. Annapurna South Base Camp provides the
best distant view of the mountain. To date, apart from the
original route, most efforts to climb this mountain have
concentrated on the face and ridges seen from this viewpoint.
The southwest ridge of the mountain connects with Tent Peak. The
terrain between the two mountains is a confusing one and the
ridge is not straight.
