Yala Peak Climbing
Yala is a "trekking peak" in the Langtang Region of Nepal. It is categorized as an easy climbing peak as per the Alpine Grading System although this can vary by a point or so depending on the snow conditions The peak is seldom climbed in its own right, often being used as a warm-up for Naya Kanga on the opposite side of the valley. The summit gives surprisingly good views of Shishapangma if you are lucky enough with the weather. The route involves a base camp at the end of the trail and a high camp a further half day trek beyond base camp.
