Sajid Sadpara, a Pakistani mountaineer, has successfully climbed Nanga Parbat, the world’s ninth-highest peak, without the use of oxygen.
He summited the 8126-meter peak as part of the lead rope fixing team, his first of the season in Pakistan, alongside Russian, Nepalese, and Turkiye mountaineers.
Sadpara announced the feat on Twitter.
According to Seven Summit Treks, a Nepal-based official mountaineering company, a team of 20 international climbers, including the world record holder from Norway, Kristin Harila, Sherpa Tenjen (aka Lama), and Mingtemba, successfully reached the summit while fixing the summit rope.
“This was Kristin and Tenjen’s tenth ascent of an 8,000-meter peak as part of the Fastest 14 Peaks project.” “In addition, Sophie Lavaud and Tunc Findik completed their 14 Peak (all 8000ers) journey by conquering the final remaining peak, Nanga Parbat,” the tweet added.
Sajid Sadpara, who climbed the dangerous K2 at the age of nineteen, has summited six summits without the use of oxygen.
In April of this year, he created history by climbing Mount Annapurna, the world’s tenth-highest mountain, without the use of supplemental oxygen.
