We climbed there in 1989 - three first ascents of peaks between Kongur and Mustagh Ata. There are umpteen unclimbed 6000m peaks in this area.

Your historical articles are amazing, inspiring and motivating. A lot of people have forgotten the long by-gone glory days of mountaineering. Thank you for reminding us of the glory days!

I like reading your mountaineering articles and I have a request. Could you do an article about the first ascent of Baintha Brakk in 1977? It's a famous climbing/survival story and this is one of my favourite mountain peaks. Thank you.
