Rakaposhi Expedition is an Epic Adventure. Located in Nagar Valley, roughly 100 km north of the capital city of Gilgit. Rakaposhi signifies “Snow Covered” in the local language.
It is otherwise called Dumani (Mother of mist). Rakaposhi is the 27th highest globally and the twelfth highest in Pakistan. Rakaposhi has a continuous vertical ascent of 6000 m (19,685 feet).
Popularity of the Rakaposhi Expedition
Rakaposhi was first climbed in 1958 by Mike Banks and Tom Patey via the Southwest Face route. The two of them endured minor frostbite during the climb. Another climber slipped and fell, and died during the evening.
Rakaposhi is a challenging yet rewarding mountain to climb. Directly on the Shining divider, Rakaposhi offers the longest edge on the planet. Ascending 3000 vertical meters (10,000 ft) and running 9 km (5,6 miles) in length.
Once in a while, the Rakaposhi New Edge remains unclimbed. The most recent genuine endeavor occurred in August 2001 by a gifted French group. Later, Wajidulah Nagri nailed it in 2021. Wajid said, ” Mountain Expedition is an expensive sport to play”.
