K2 2025 Coverage Wrap: Season Summary-A Rocky Season
About this episode
The summer 2025 Karakorum for the 8000-meter peaks is over, and what a season it was. There were summits, deaths, disappointments and survivals. Was it a “successful” season? I’ll leave that judgment to others—but honestly, it often felt like safety took a back seat to ambition.
Summits:
K2- 42 with two deaths
Broad Peak: 0
Gashbrum II: 0
Gasherbrum I: 17
Nanga Parbat: 25 with one death#K2025
Climb On!
