As reported at Altitude Pakistan, Alex Txikon, Simone Moro & Ali Sadpara completed the first successful winter ascent of Nanga Parbat this morning. Tamara Lunger came close but did not summit.

Just saw this on Simone's Facebook this morning!
Around 29 expedition later, someone finally sets foot up there in the winter, I'm sure Gerfried Göschl was looking after them.

K2 is the last one standing...

Nice, some real hard bodies.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
