Kun Lun ::  Kongur Tagh
2003 year attempt to climb Kongur Peak |  2004 year succesful climb Kongur Peak
Kongur Tagh, 7719m.
Kongur Peak is suggested to be the highest mountain in Kun Lun mountain range. Also some people call it China Pamir.
It is 7719 meters high and was climbed first by Chris Bonington team in 1982. After that few expeditions (26, basing on the number of issued climbing permits) tried to repeat Boningtons route or make new one, but all of them were defeated. This summit is also very interesting
because of uncrowded area, comparing with Muztagh Ata, for example. We tried to climb it twice, succeded second time in 2004.
