A son's search for his father continues!

Muhammad Ali Sadpara's son Sajid Ali Sadpara has announced in a Tweet he will continue search for his father and two other missing mountaineers on K2 - The Savage Mountain. Sajid had to return back from the #K2Winter Summit attempt due to an oxygen bottle malfunction while his father M. #AliSadpara, JohnSnorri and #JPMohr continued. All three went missing, and it remains unclear if they were able to reach the top of K2 or met an accident while on their way up.

Sajid Ali Sadpara has also announced he will lead a clean up drive to remove old useless ropes on K2 that are turning out to be dangerous for the climbers trying to conquer the #SavageMountain. #SpectacularPakistan

Winter K2 Summit Success. All Nepali Team First to the Top

Winter K2 Summit Success. All Nepali Team First to the Top

It has been over 20 years since the first climbers attempted K2 in winter. Since then, a host of expeditions have made the attempt, with no-one climbing above Camp 4 (7950 metres, 26,075 feet). With violent and changeable weather, high altitude and the need to endure incessant cold, the challenges are exponential compared to an ascent in the summer season. The Sherpas who were reported to be on…

The Impossible winter Climb of K2

“This is a dangerous mountain, and it’s perilous, there is danger climbing it in winter. Sometimes planes also crash, but people don’t stop flying. In mountaineering it is also the same: Some people go missing, some accidents happen but we keep trying.” A Sherpa who is attempting the winter climb of K2. https://www.heavenhimalaya.com/the-impossible-winter-climb-of-k2/

Superlatives Abound as First Day of Winter Arrives for K2 Climbers

Superlatives Abound as First Day of Winter Arrives for K2 Climbers

As we roll into the true start of winter, K2 climbers are rapidly feeling the effects of the high mountains in the coldest season. Temperatures are just one indication, add in the need to acclimatize, the incessantly flapping tents and the occasional snow storm sweeping in, creating an even more hostile environment. K2. On a warm summer day. It won’t look or feel quite the same right now.…

14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible (titolo italiano “14 vette: scalate ai limiti del possibile“). L’intrepido alpinista nepalese Nimsdai Purja parte per una missione apparentemente impossibile: scalare i 14 ottomila del mondo in sette mesi. Due anni fa ho conquistato la cima dello #Shishapangma e ho portato a termine la missione. Sono riuscito a scalare le 14 vette della zona della morte in soli 6…

Dopo la conferenza stampa che ha ufficializzato la morte dei tre alpinisti scomparsi sul K2 si stanno moltiplicando le manifestazioni d’affetto e riconoscenza nei confronti di John Snorri, Juan Pablo Mohr e Muhammad Ali Sadpara.
