Masherbrum or K1 is another majestic peak of the
Karakorum range. With a height of 7821 (m)
Masherbrum
proves to be an enthrilling climb for
mountaineers. It has a longitude of 76.18 and a
Latitude of 35.39. It's first ascend was in
1960. As you ascend the Hushe Valley you can see
scintilating views of the snow peaks up narrow
nalas craving for exploration. Tall poplars and
the last fruit trees are miniscule next to the
sheer walls rising from the east side of the
valley in particular. You walk directly towards
Masherbrum and have you best views of it.
North of Hushe, three glaciers extyend off the
southern slopes of Masherbrum. From west to east
they are the Aling, Masherbrum, and Ghandagoro.
