Description
According to Reinhold Messner, K2 is the most inaccessible of all eight-thousanders, much more challenging than Everest. That is why a traditional book is not enough to pay tribute to the myth of K2. This giant, dangerous and irresistible, deserves something more. ***** With the help of clear maps, beautiful archival photographs, and detailed expedition routes, we reconstruct a whole century of overcoming challenges among glaciers: from the initial expeditions of scientists and cartographers in the nineteenth century to the historic ascent of the mountain's summit. ***** It is an immersive reading experience that combines graphics, photography, illustrations, and storytelling. A paper monument in memory of the rock giant, dangerous and irresistible.
