In 1934 Eric Shipton Ang Tharkay and Kusang Namgir climbed Maiktoli during the 1934 Shipton–Tilman Nanda Devi expeditions. In 1961 A nine-member team comprising Gurdial Singh and Hari Dang of the Doon School, Major John D. Dias, Captain K. N. Thadani and Lieutenant (Dr.) N. Sharma of the Indian Army, and Suman Dubey, of Delhi and three sherpa from Darjeeling Kalden, Nima and Lhakpa all climbed on 21 June, the second ascent of Maiktoli.[4] A six-member Japanese team led by Hitoshi Fukuriki made the first ascent of the south ridge of Maiktoli (22,320 feet (6,800 m)). On 29 May Nishimura and Yamaguchi reached the summit, followed by Fukuriki and Nakae on May 31 and on June 1 by Sasamto and Nomura.[5]

It is surrounded by glaciers with Dakshini Rishi Glacier on the northern side and Sundardunga Glacier on the southern side. Pindari River emerges from southern side of Maiktoli while on the northern side is Rishi Ganga. Rishi Ganga met with Dhauli Ganga near lata. Later Dhauli ganga met with Alaknanda at Vishnu Pryag.
