Nanga Parbat - 8125m. |
Country: Pakistan |
Description |
| Nanga Parbat translated would mean "Naked
Mountain" It is the awe-inspiring pillar that makes up
the extreme western corner of the Great Himalaya.
It was first climbed by H. Buhl in 1953. Of its three
Faces: Raikot Face, Diamir Face and Rupal Face: the latter
is the most impressive on account of the sheer size of
this rock and ice wall. On the other hand, the North Face
slopes down to an amazing 7000m to Indus has leading to
the formation of its own highly unpredictable micro-climate.
Though technically the climb does not pose too many a
problem the wantom weather condition could delay matters.
Nanga Parbat was first climbed in 1953 in the course
of the German-Austrian Willy Merkl Memorial Expedition.
The massif now has eight different routes is relatively
well explored.
