"K2 Summit Push Update: Conquering K2, The Savage Mountain”

1st Day: Camp 2 ⛺️
2nd Day: Camp 3 ⛺️
3rd Day: Camp 4 and Summit ⛺️ 🏔️

🏔️ Our final summit push began on July 27th, but we strategically started from Base Camp a day earlier. Akram, Huzaifa, and I left Base Camp at 5:00 PM on July 26th, reaching Advanced Base Camp (ABC) in the evening. We enjoyed a hearty meal and quality time together.

🏔️ The next morning, we ascended to Camp 2, bidding farewell to Akram and Huzaifa at Camp 1 as they descended. Muhammad Ali Sadpara joined me, and we reached Camp 2 at 5:00 PM, resting for the night.

🏔️ On July 27th, we started our climb at 0800 AM and reached Camp 3 at 3:00 PM. Here we rested for a while and had our meal then pushed on to Camp 4, arriving by 2:00 PM. After resting and fueling up, we began our summit push at 9:00 PM in pitch darkness.

🏔️ The climb was grueling, with strong winds, light snowfall, and blue ice. The final 200-300 meters were the toughest. After 10-11 hours of climbing, Sherzad Karim and I summited K2 (8,611 meters) at 8:00 AM on July 29th. We spent 20-25 minutes at the top, proudly raising the Pakistan 🇵🇰 and Gilgit-Baltistan flags, marking a historic achievement."
