Trango Groups Rock Climbing - Expeirence Karakoram

The Trango group is an attraction for rock climbers worldwide; Trango is a prince for the other towers, offering scenic views from the Baltoro glacier. Most rock climbers in the USA love these towers, and they climb them from Time to Time. It also attracts Polish and Japanese.
Trango Towers, situated on the Baltoro massif of Baltoro Cathedral, surrounded by Lupsand Tower, Uhli Beaho Tower, Muztagh Tower, Biange Tower, and Paiyu Peak,
Great Trango (6287m) was first climbed on July 21, 1977, by the Americans Galen Rowell, John Roskelly, Kim Schmitz, and Dennis Hennek. They had risen through the South Face of the mountain. The East Face of Great Trango, 1600m from its base to the top, is among the most significant rock walls in the world. Its first ascent was made by the Norwegians Hans Christian Doseth and Finn Daehli in 1984, but tragically, the two climbers fell to their deaths when abseiling.
The so-called Nameless Tower is the most spectacular of the Trango towers (6251m). It was first climbed via the South-West Face by Bo Anthoine and Martin Boysen from Great Britain. The next day, Joe Brown and Malcolm Howells reached the top of Nameless Tower. In 1989, Kurt Albert and Wolfgang Gllich wrote Alpine history when they free-climbed a route they called Eternal Flame (with pitches graded 7c) and thus established free-climbing in the world’s high mountains.
