Opinion | Nepalis Reach K2 Summit, a First in Winter

Jan. 23, 2021 K2, the second highest mountain in the world.Credit.De Agostini, via Getty Images It’s not often that a team of climbers attempts K2, the “Savage Mountain,” in winter. Before this season, the world’s second-highest mountain, first climbed in 1954, had been tried only six times in the coldest months. Each effort ended in failure. Even so, last month two expeditions of Nepali climbers converged on the Godwin Austen Glacier in a remote corner of Pakistan to attempt the feat. Neither of the groups was there to guide wealthy Western clients to the top and then take back seats to their accomplishments, as Nepalis in general and ethnic Sherpa in particular often do as the hired help. They were climbing for themselves. Both teams made it together to the 28,251-foot summit last Saturday, making a statement of teamwork and selflessness for Indigenous Himalayan climbers.
