Introduction:
Not only to find the hidden summit but also to climb it. The Gasherbrum I is with 8,068m the second highest mountain in the Karakorum and the 11th highest mountain in the world. It is called “Hidden Peak” because it cannot be seen from the Baltoro glacier. In Addition, can be better distinguished from it's smaller brother. The eponym W. M. Conway, a British explorer in the year 1892, can be said to have given it's name to a portion of rationality.
The summit is located in the best-known part of Karakorum, between Pakistan and China, not far from Conway Saddle, which is the transition to the Indian-controlled part of Karakorum
Gasherbrum I is a most trending 8000m mountaineering in Northern Pakistan, which only experienced mountaineers are going to climb. Therefore, only 200 successful ascents were recorded on Gasherbrum I. The first ascent of Gasherbrum I was achieved during an expedition under Nicolas Clich by Pete Schoening and Andrew Kauffmann in July 1958. In 1975 Reinhold Messner and Peter Habeler managed the first ascent of an eight-thou sander on a new route in pure alpine style via the northwest ridge.
