Highest Mountain in the world:
that is still unclimbed.
Muchu Chhish (7452m).

Alpinists since the start of exploration era aimed for the remaining great problems in Alpinism. A wildest dream to do what is yet to be done.
Aiming for the mountains that is yet to be climbed, a line that is still undone. Over the years and decades that list of the "last great problems' kept declining.
There are more than a dozen and a half mountains considered to be the last remaining big mountains (over seven thousand meters) still waiting for summit feet.
Gangkhar puensum(7570m) in Bhutan is the highest of them all, but terminated for future climbing expeditions as it is considered sacred in Bhutanese traditions, making Muchu Chhish the highest unclimbed mountain in the World.

Ultar Sar is a magnificent mountain located in the Karakoram Range of Pakistan, rising dramatically above the surrounding landscape. Its majestic, snow-capped peak towers over the valley, with its slopes covered in a glistening blanket of ice and snow. The mountain is surrounded by an expansive wilderness, with glaciers, rivers, and valleys snaking their way through the rugged terrain.

Climbing Ultar Sar is a formidable challenge, requiring expert mountaineering skills and equipment. The climb is considered one of the most technically challenging in the world, with climbers facing steep and exposed terrain, crevasses, and avalanches. However, for those brave enough to attempt the climb, the views from the summit are truly breathtaking. From the top, climbers can see for miles in every direction, with sweeping vistas of the surrounding mountains and valleys.

Ultar Sar is not only a symbol of the majesty and power of nature, but it is also a testament to human perseverance and determination. Climbing this magnificent mountain is an achievement that few will ever experience, and those who do will undoubtedly be forever changed by the experience.

K2 is the second-highest mountain peak in the world, standing at an elevation of 8,611 meters (28,251 feet) in the Karakoram Range on the border between Pakistan and China. It is also known as Mount Godwin-Austen or Chhogori and is considered one of the most challenging peaks to climb due to its steep and technical terrain, unpredictable weather conditions, and high altitude.

The first successful ascent of K2 was made in 1954 by an Italian team led by Ardito Desio. Since then, many attempts to climb K2 have been made, resulting in numerous deaths due to avalanches, falls, and other hazards.

Despite its dangers, K2 remains a popular destination for experienced mountaineers and adventurers seeking the ultimate challenge. The climb to the summit requires advanced technical skills, physical fitness, and a high level of endurance, making it a true test of human strength and willpower.
