Moreover,it is a great moment for Pakistan that a climber from our ranks was able to achieve this great milestone and he has recently climbed the Mount Manaslu which has an astounding elevation of 8,156 meters and is also considered to be the eighth highest mountain in the world. It should be also noted that this mountain has in the past been dubbed as the ‘Killer mountain of Nepal’, having a record number of deaths. Record is a record, but the amount of bravery and sacrifice it would have took to get this reward is truly remarkable and something to be proud of.
Sadpara is of 43 years of age and belongs to an area in the very beautiful valley of Skardu. He is currently collaborating with SST in the pursuit of his own 148,000’er quest. He is already more than halfway there as he has summited all Pakistan’s 8,000’ers, including the first-ever winter climb of Nanga Parbat in 2016. Climbing that mountain in the winter months is unbelievable but our man of Steel did it. More power to you sir.
