Gasherbrum II

Trip Reports

Jagged Globe has organised four previous expeditions to Gasherbrum II, with success on three of these. We are back on the mountain in 2009 with a team that has a lot of experience on other 8,000ers including Everest, Cho Oyu and Manaslu. If you would like to join what is guaranteed to be a really amazing trip, please get in touch with Adele at Jagged Globe.
