People continue to pray for the revered Pakistani mountaineer Ali Sadpara’s return. The mountain climber and his team have been missing since news broke of their speculated summit of K2. No official confirmation of their successful summit came as yet.<\/p>\n

Ali Sadpara is an internationally-renowned climber having summited Nanga Parbat, the western anchor of the Himalayas in the winter. He has climbed that peak four times already and previously summited K2 – the ‘savage mountain’ with his son, then just a 20-year-old.<\/p>\n

Now the mountain climber made history by climbing K2 without oxygen, along with John Snorri of Iceland and Juan Pablo Mohr from Chile. Prior to Ali Sadpara no one had managed to summit the world’s second highest peak in winter, making Ali a world record holder.<\/p>\n
