From Wikipedia: Mardi Himal (Nepali: मार्दी हिमाल) is a 5,587-metre (18,330 ft) peak beneath the much more prominent Machapuchare in the Annapurna region of Nepal, from which it is separated by 5,200 meters (17,060 ft). It was first summited in 1961 by Basil Goodfellow.
In 2012, the Mardi Himal Trek was opened, following a ridge towards the summit, with lodges and teahouses open to an elevation of 3,550m, with a further climb to "Base Camp" at 4,500m. The peak itself is classified by the Nepalese government as a "Trekking Peak" and is offered by many expedition companies.
