Description
Spantik Peak is at the head of Chogholungma glacier in Arandu Valley- Skardu. The mountain range lies between Hunza-Nager and Baltistan in Karakorum. The people from Hunza and Nager Valley called the mountain GOLDEN PEAK having a great sunset view as golden pillar.
The Skardu side of the mountain offers a suitable route to the summit. It is usually climbed from Chogholungma Glacier (Arandu side). The route is South East Ridge. This is relatively easy route with high proportion of success.
It was first attempted in 1906 by the American couple Fanny and William Bullock-Workman by this route who reached up to the 6700m, a female altitude record at that time. A German expedition made the first successful ascent by this route in 1955 and repeated several times since.
One of the successful Expedition of Spantik-Peak was Pakistan-China friendship venture led by Lt. Col (retired) Dr Abdul Jabbar Bhatti on July 2011.
