K2 2025 Coverage: Death, Summits & Progress

from The Podcast on alanarnette.com · host Alan Arnette

Summits! We have summits in the Karakoram on Sunday, July 20, 2025. Also, climbers are acclimatizing at Camp 3 on BP, and most teams seem focused on an upcoming summit window around the end of July. Conditions are finally improving in the Karakoram after days of high temperatures, winds, and even snow and rain. One issue is that crows are eating food left at high camps! Tragically, one climber died last week on K2 from rockfall. Also, improvements are made for locals and visitors trekking the Baltoro Glacier. #K2025Climb On!AlanMemories are Everythinghttps://www.alanarnette.com/blog/2025/07/20/k2-2025-coverage-death-summits-and-progress/
