K2 is the second highest mountain in the world and considered as the hardest of the 8000m peaks. Philippe and some friends tried to climb the Abruzzi Spur but have been stopped by challenging weather, rockfalls and a massive avalanche…
Philippe teamed up with Gorgan and Serap to climb Gasherbrum II (8035 m) and Gasherbrum I (8068 m). As often in Karakoram, the weather has been terrible and they couldn’t rich neither top. Nevertheless, the raw beauty of these peaks, the difficult access of the Baltoro and the tough conditions make it a place like no others.
