Deo Tibba is a beautiful 6001metre high peak situated in the Pir Panjal range of mountains in the Manali area in Himachal Pradesh. Deo Tibba consists of an extensive ice cap the actual climb being a snow hump accessible once the edge of the ice plateau is reached. It also has the beauty of being just over the 6000 metre high mark which is a great achievement for any climber.

Trekking to Base Camp :
Jagatsukh village just 6 kms from Manali is the road head for the trek to base camp. It is a 3 or 4 day approach walk to base camp depending on where base camp is established. One possibility for base camp is located near a glacier lake called "Chandra Tal" close to the main glacier that falls off the south-east face of Deo Tibba. This is at an altitude of 4500m/14850ft. It is quite a high base camp and depending on the rate of acclimatization, the base camp may be set lower at around 4070m/13430ft. This will mean the camp at the Col that is spoken about below becomes Camp Two with Camp One at 4500m/14850ft.
Moving on to Camp One at Duangan Col ( Duangan Pass ) the route crosses the Deo Tibba Glacier and takes a steep slope of between 45 and 55 degrees for around 300 metres. The climbing is mixed on snow, rock and ice to cover this portion of the climb to the Col (pass). For safe travel ropes will need to be fixed for most of this section.
After reaching Duangan Col Camp One can be set at the Col , or a little further on at the base of some more technical ground known as the Pitton Ridge. The Col is generally preferred but also depends on the prevailing conditions at the time.
Many climbers make a direct ascent from this high camp to the summit via the Pitton Ridge which faces east. The ridge is quite steep and again requires fixed rope for safe travel for around 150 metres. Soon after climbing the rock of the Pitton Ridge you move onto the snow field. From this point on Deo Tibba and its neighbour Indra San are visible and for climbers moving at a good pace it is only an additional two hours from this point onwards following the left side of the upper glacier. Because of deo Tibba's giant snow dome covering it is a relatively easy final ascent with few crevasses to negotiate. The slope steepens to around 50 degrees just below the summit for about 50 metres.

The summit itself is quite a wide expanse able to accommodate all climbers.
