31 Broad Peak Central Summit And Main Summit Just After Sunrise From Concordia  [34 of 40]


Here is a close up of the Broad Peak Central Summit and the Broad Peak Main Summit just after sunrise from Concordia. The first ascent of the Broad Peak Central or Middle summit was completed by Poles Kazimierz Glazek and Janusz Kulis on July 28, 1975 while three other members huddled 40m away and a few metres lower. During the descent the weather worsened. Bohdan Nowaczyk was killed when the rope anchor failed. Andrzej Sikorski slipped, knocking Marek Kesicki and Kulis off. Only Kulis survived the fall. Kulis and Glazek eventually made it back to the expedition's top camp. Both were frostbitten, Kulis subsequently losing most of his toes
