K2 Ka Pakistan

Climbing teams are scattered all across the Karakoram this early July seeking to summit the five 8000ers located in Pakistan.

Most are progressing well with several nights already spent at the lower to mid level camps around 7, 000 meters as they acclimatize to the higher altitudes. A few climbers, five reported thus far, have abandoned their climbs due to injury and other issues.

The week starting with the 4th of July saw the weather turn a bit ugly with heavy snow reported at multiple base camps thus teams are locked down for a few days – all quite normal in July in the Karakoram.

As previously noted, it is a busy season on K2 but the other peaks seem to be about normal for permits. This is a list of the Karakorum 2016 Expeditions permits issued for all the Karakoram mountains this summer.

K2 - Season on the Edge is a documentary film following an expedition to K2 on the one hundredth anniversary of the Duke of Abruzzi's 1909 expedition to the mountain. The film follows four people as they make their way to and up the mountain, reflect on its place in their lives and the consequences some face trying to climb it.
