Description

Wikipedia

Kunyang or Khunyang Chhish East is a 7,400 metres (24,300 ft) mountain in the Khunyang Chhish massif (a subrange of the Karakoram mountains of Pakistan). It is separated by a 7,160 metres (23,490 ft) pass from the main summit 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) to the West and has a 2,700 metres (8,900 ft) Southwest face. On July 18, 2013 Hansjörg Auer, Matthias Auer and Simon Anthamatten made the first ascent over this wall, which had been widely regarded as one of the great remaining problems in alpinism.
