CARSTENZ PYRAMID TREKKING
👉Meet Point : Timika,Mozes Kilangin International airport. In 1936, the Carstensz expedition, initiated by the Dutch, was unable to determine with certainty which of the three peaks was the highest, decided to try to climb each peak. Anton Colijn, Jean Jacques Dozy, and Frits Julius Wissel reached the Eastern Carstensz glacier and the Ngga Pulu Peak on 5 December. Because the glaciers are melting, the height of the Ngga Pulu Peak is 4,862 meters, but it has been estimated that in 1936 (when the glacier was still covered by a peak of 13 square kilometers), Ngga Pulu was indeed the highest peak with an altitude of more than 5,000 meters. Afterwards Puncak Jaya was never climbed until 1962, by an expedition led by Austrian mountaineer Heinrich Harrer, with three other expedition members, Robert Philip Temple, Russell Kippax, and Albertus Huizenga. Philip Temple from New Zealand, previously led an expedition to the area and pioneered an access route to the mountains. I
