In past, he had climbed the world’s highest peak Mount Everest without the support of supplementary oxygen and assistance from Sherpas in May 2023.
Legendary mountaineer Ali Sadpara’s son, Sajid Sadpara has set the target to climb all 14 peaks above 8,000 height without the aid of supplementary oxygen. Earlier, he summited K2 (8,611m), Gasherbrum-I (8,080m), and Gasherbrum-II (8,035m) in Pakistan, as well as Manaslu (8,163m) in Nepal, without supplemental oxygen.
The Norwegian woman climber Kristin Harila said that she was aiming to summit Nanga Parbat, Gasherbrum I, Gasherbrum II, K2, and the Broad Peak in Pakistan as she looked to become the fastest mountaineer to climb the world’s 14 tallest peaks in three months.
She climbed Mount Manaslu in Nepal on June 10, her ninth highest mountain in 45 days, a hiking official said.
