Asia, India, Kashmir and Jammu, Kun and P 6300 above Phirtse Pass

Publication Year: 1978.

Kun and P 6300 above Phirtse Pass. Five German climbers, led by Ludwig Greissl, and a Sherpa climbed Kun on August 19. A second group of nine, led by Franz Klement, got to the top on September 2. Two of a group in the Zanskar climbed an unnamed peak of 6300 meters (20,670 feet) above the Phirtse Pass, which links Keylong-Darcha and Padam. This was probably a first ascent. These were climbers from Hauser International.
