Originally know as K3 it is known by some locally as Faichan Kangri</span>In. In June 2011, a team of 6 Brits will set off to Pakistan to attempt to climb this peak. The team aim to summit, without guides, without porters and without oxygen. It will be the first time any of them have gone to 8000m and will be a big test of thier physical and mental strength. If they succeed they will be the 9th - 14th Brits to stand on the summit.
