Friday afternoon, July 18, a massive avalanche on Pakistan’s notorious K2 claimed one life and left several others injured. Often called the “Savage Mountain,” K2 has earned its fearsome reputation for danger. “A foreign climber sustained minor injuries, while two others successfully returned to the Advance Base Camp,” Haidri said. Our international guide and clients were at Base Camp at the time of the incident and are all safe. Everyone from our team, including climbing Sherpas, has returned to Base Camp and is accounted for.
