A team of Nepali mountaineers summited K2 in January 2021 becoming the first team to do so. As Adrian mentions the temperature at K2 during the winter, it was -50 and winds blowing at over 50 miles per hour. I wish that feat had received more coverage and more appreciation that it deserved.

Update: K2 climbed in winter on 16th Jan 2021 by 10 Nepali climbers. One of them, Nirmal Purja climbed without O2 supplement.
@fchau60192 жыл бұрын
Really enjoyed this video! Since this video was made, a Nepalese mountaineer Nirmal Purja and his team , have been the first to summit K2 in the winter, earlier this year I believe. The same guy also holds the record for the fastest ascent of all 14 "eight thousanders" in just 6 months. I think Netflix is premiering the latter story on Nov 29. Looking forward to watching it.

If your team made the choice to clean up your K2 venture which is essentially of a similar height to Everest, why can’t the rest of the world clean up their stuff on Everest? Why the discrepancy in climbing best practices and ecological stewardship? What’s wrong with everyone while on Everest? It seems morality and other amiable qualities go out the window for a vast majority of Everest visitors.

The Karakorum mountains were named by the British when they first came upon them, brilliantly named K1-K9. So yes, there is a K1 and there is a K3 and all the rest. I believe many others have been renamed but K2 remains the same.

Be aware that the terrain is actively hostile: scree slopes thousands of feet high which when they get bored pitch rocks and the rivers are icy cold raging torrents too thick to swim in and too thin to plow. If you stand along the Braldu river you can hear sizeable rocks being knocked together. This river drains the Baltoro glacier. The Baltoro glacier is about 30 miles long and is covered with rocks which makes the glacier look like an enormous mine dump. The Balti folks were friendly and Hunza is spectacular.

His summit in K2 without 02 is not a true form of mountaineering. He used high altitude porters and Sherpas with bottled oxygen to trail blaze and fixed ropes. In fact, he ascended using Nims Dai’s fixed ropes. To me it is a Cheating in mountaineering. If he is a true alpinist, he should be self sufficient to ascend but not depend on Sherpas. What is the point of ascending if you use bottled oxygenated Sherpas to do all the job for you? 😳😳
