Thomas Huber of Germany, teaming with Americans Jon Griffin and Tad McCrea, climbed a new route in Pakistan’s remote Choktoi Valley at the end of summer. Huber recently described the experience as being “on the edge of this world.”<\/p>\n

The Choktoi Valley includes the Latok Peaks; Huber has climbed there several times before. This time, the trio summited a previously unclimbed point, the northern rocky tower of Suma Brakk, a 6,150m spire that the team has named Eye Ri<\/em>. They estimate the difficulty at 5.11\/A3, with an average steepness of 70\u00ba.<\/p>\n
