Coming back to climb another day
The mountains always have the final word.
After continued snowfall, high winds, and challenging conditions, the 2026 Manaslu season has come to a close. Turning around is never easy, but bringing everyone home safely will always come first.
A huge thank you to our climbers, guides, Sherpa team, and everyone who worked so hard this season.
The mountains will always be there—and so will we.
Next up: Ama Dablam in late October. We’re incredibly excited to get back to Nepal and take on one of the most beautiful mountains in the world!
