The K2 Expedition refers to the challenging attempts made by climbers to reach the summit of K2, the second-highest mountain in the world, standing at 8,611 meters (28,251 feet). Located in the Karakoram range on the border between Pakistan and China, K2 is known for its extreme difficulty and unpredictable weather conditions, making it one of the most dangerous peaks to climb. Climbers often face technical routes, avalanches, and altitude sickness during their expeditions. The first successful ascent of K2 occurred in 1954 by an Italian team led by Lino Lacedelli and Achille Compagnoni. Since then, many climbers have attempted the summit, with varying degrees of success and tragedy.
