Mongolian mountaineer Gangaamaa Badamgarav successfully climbed to the summit of K2, second highest peak in the world after Mount Qomolangma, becoming the first person from the country for the feat. Situated on the China-Pakistan border, the 8,611-meter high K2 is the highest point in the Karakoram range. Known as the Savage Mountain, K2 is considered to be one of the most difficult peaks to scale as about one person dies on the mountain for every four trying to reach the summit. Currently, only 300 climbers have overcome the summit, while 77 have died in the attempt.
