Feb 23, 2011 – The Descent From Gasherbrum II
Earlier this month, Simone Moro, Denis Urubko and Cory Richards bagged the first winter ascent of Gasherbrum II, but almost died during the descent when they were caught in an avalanche and fell into two crevasses. This film captures some of the challenges the team faced on their journey to basecamp.
