K2( Chogori 8611-M) Known as the second-highest mountain of the world. HistoricallyIt was first ascent by Italian expedition in 1954.K2 is notable for its local relief as well as its total height.
Climbing K2 is much more challenging and far more dangerous than climbing Everest via the standard North or Southside routes. It's dreams of every experienced climbers to ascent on K-2 is every tough challenges mountains of the world. Let's start your dreams to acquire this challenge and climb 8000m in Pakistan, the most trending mountaineering in Northern Pakistan with AMT this season.
K-2 climbing routefrom Pakistan side ;
The Abruzzi Spur (South East Ridge)
This is the closest to a "normal" route on K2, but is still most difficult and statistically very dangerous. The route starts with approximately 1000 m of climbing on loose scree with significant danger of rocks falling from Camp 1 and above.
C-1, 6050-M (20000ft)
C1 is exposed but relatively secure, with little or no history of avalanche danger. The climb to C2 includes a 50-meter off-width crack called House’s Chimney which is currently a spider’s web of old ropes.
C-2, 6700-M (22000ft)
Camp2 is sheltered by a large rock, but can get extremely windy & cold. Camp-2 to Camp-3 is the most technical section of the climb, with approximately 400 meters of vertical and near-vertical climbing on mixed rock and ice in a region known as the "Black Pyramid."
C-3, 7200-M (23500ft)
At the top of the Black Pyramid, Camp-3 is traditionally placed on the Shoulder. Although this is more horizontal terrain (approx. 30 degree snow fields), it is prone to avalanche danger and extremely high winds funneling between K2 and Broad Peak. Consider stashing camp equipment just below in the Black Pyramid; many climbers are forced to descend when they discover that their Camp-3 has been destroyed by avalanches. Camp-3 to Camp-4 is a long snow slog up the Shoulder, typically accomplished without fixed lines.
C-4, 7600-M (25000ft)
Camp-4, at anywhere from 7600 to 7900 meters on the Shoulder, is still a solid 16-22 hours from the summit, so you should start brewing immediately (don’t spend too much energy building a platform, you won’t have time to sleep anyhow).
Top of K-2 8611-m (28250ft)
Most climbers leave between 10 p.m and 1 a.m. for the summit. Consider bringing a thin line (4-5mm) for the Bottleneck, a 100-meter narrow couloirs at 8300 meters that is 80-90 degrees. If it is windswept and cold, the ice in this couloirs can create extremely challenging, sustained climbing. At least 10 of the climbers who have died on K2 lost their lives in the Bottleneck.
