K2
8611 M / 28,251 FT
On this day 2 years ago, Mingma Gyalje Sherpa, Nirmal Purja Pun Magar, Gelje Sherpa, Mingma David Sherpa, Mingma Tenzi Sherpa, Dawa Temba Sherpa, Pem Chhiri Sherpa, Kilu Pemba Sherpa, Dawa Tenjing Sherpa, and Sona Sherpa became the first people to summit K2 in winter. This mountain not only is over 8000 M but also technical in nature. To summit in the summer is difficult but in the winter is absolutely 🤯. So many people have tried over the years and failed but this team pulled it off!
